Post by: solman on July 18, 2007, 12:38:08 AM: I would like to see how good of a motorcycle photographer you are. Add one or two of your best photo's that you have taken. Here are some of my best shots:

Post by: ZenMan on July 18, 2007, 02:08:36 AM: Nice pics, Solman! :wink:

I like this one because of the organic horse behind the steel one:

I found that getting down low with the camera makes the bike look more impressive:

Chopped the mirror, but I was going for the big engine:

Here's #17 in her natural element in a couple of my favourite shots:

(http://i73.photobucket.com/albums/i234/H2RICK/BC%20Trip/th_DSCF0580.jpg) (http://i73.photobucket.com/albums/i234/H2RICK/BC%20Trip/DSCF0580.jpg)
At the Continental Divide in the Rockies (about 1.5 hours west of CowTown) on the way home after the Labour Day trip last year.

(http://i73.photobucket.com/albums/i234/H2RICK/Labour%20Day%20Trip/th_DSCF0443.jpg) (http://i73.photobucket.com/albums/i234/H2RICK/Labour%20Day%20Trip/DSCF0443.jpg)
This is in the Rockies on the highest paved road in Canada. This was the very first trip I took #17 on....even though it was just a day trip.

And, of course, this is the first hit of the starter button after I assembled her. What the heck, call me a sentimental fool, but it was a big day for me. My first new street bike in 36 years.....

I would like to see how good of a motorcycle photographer you are. Add one or two of your best photo's

Solman, I took that to mean photos with motorcycles as the main subject, as if meant for the cover of a magazine or in an article. Photos meant to show off the bike, not the scenery or groups of bikes.

Is that what you had in mind?

They are all great pics though, I'm not criticizing anybody... :bigok:

Basiccally what I meant was your money shots. Shots that you took time to try and get the best lighting and back ground. That is basically why I posted the title "Best pics"

Post by: Barbarian on July 26, 2007, 09:28:37 AM: That reminds me of two years ago, when I was living in Manhattan, and the motorcycle squad got their new scooters.

Police would effectively shut down a street to do maneuvers, then they'd all stop and park them in sync.

Post by: Red01 on July 30, 2007, 11:31:58 AM: Well, the pics were taken at a Banditfest... I was a little disappointed we could only get 8 to show up out of the entire Pacific Northwest between two sites - and the lodging & salmon dinner was free! (And two of the Bandits - the ones on each end of the shot - belonged to the host & his wife.)

Post by: ZenMan on August 21, 2007, 06:16:35 PM: A buddy from Wisconson was down for the weekend to ride the great roads we have in Southern Missouri.
He rode his Triumph Daytona 675 and me on the B1250.
We did 5 counties and a part of northern Arkansas of the best twisties and roller-coaster roads there are.

This is a scenic overlook just west of Eminence on MO 106 in the National Forest:

(http://i132.photobucket.com/albums/q13/ZenMan33/BanDay1.jpg)

I had a Sport Attack mounted just for his visit, he had a new set of Pilot Powers.
Needless to say, we had the chicken-strips scrubbed off the first day out:

(http://i132.photobucket.com/albums/q13/ZenMan33/BanDay2.jpg)

The Bandit did a great job setting a smokin' pace with the Daytona.

Post by: Old_n_Slow on November 01, 2007, 09:46:18 PM: This was from a poker run to Camp Thunderbird in Apopka, Florida. The camp is for older mentally challenged people from all over North America. The three young men in this shot would have a hard time constructing a single sentence between them, but were thrilled to see our bikes and couldn't soak up enough of just being near them. This was one of the best days I've ever had on a motorcycle anywhere. God bless the people at Quest.

Thanks. Don't want to muddle this thread and you probubly heard my story over at Maxzuk that I got cold feet with the C14 ongoing problems and decided late that all the good propaganda press on the B1250 must mean something and the OTD price was too good to pass up at $7800. The OEM matching bags are on back order, might as well do it right this time. My overall assessment, after 3 weeks still in stupefaction over this bikes ride.
