Ghost Bike

I laughed when I saw this! At school, George had designed and built a vivid green front-wheel suspension joint for his little black bmx bike and needed to test it and provide proof that it worked for his GCSE project. We went into the evening gloom where the camera (on auto ISO) picked a low ISO and this was the result! A click to a higher ISO provided him with the proof that the suspension worked over the stress of a couple of home-made ramps... it wasn't just the bike that was stressed by the end but he got the proof he needed to hand in by the deadline... this morning!

Gosh you are all lovely viewing / commenting on my little bokeh dandelion seed-head yesterday - I realised that the 365 project was getting to me when I found myself comparing yellow dandelions as I dug them up...!! Thank you so much - you're totally smashing!
LOL! you know I like pictures representing motion: I love the way this came out!

How cool, everyone benefits from 365! Your son will be glad to have had you on hand to help him in his project and it turned out to be mutually beneficial

Cool shot.. and George now has a bike that's faster than a canon. OK, bad joke - I know.

there is a Nicolas Cage movie called Ghost Rider. I think George is even faster than him!!

Yeeehaaa! If you hadn't said it was a bike I might have thought it was a horse!

Hahaha, this is brilliant! I love how George keeps inventing all those scary action shots for you to do!

Ghostly! Cool! Last minute homework..joys! Loved the sillly tag you used. And I got a pic of a ghost hover fly or hover bee the other day....it has not gone in my project yet, but will soon as filler probably. It was weird because I had an high ISO and shutter speed at the time.
