bike

today i had to go straight from work to the local hockey arena as the boys were playing in a tournament ... so finally had a chance to shoot in this location (normally i would just drive thru here)...

played with the contrast enough to remove the cars that were lurking annoyingly in the background...

somewhat better large on black :)

my apologies for being so very behind in commenting... i hope to have a chance to catch up over the weekend...

Great composition and pov

Wow, really nice how you have the bike in focus. Question - did you use AF or MF?

very cool photo

@lambda tx Amit... i was using auto focus... focused on the cyclist and then recomposed... as he was coming towards me and was fairly far away, it wasn't too difficult to get the focus to work reasonably well...

[Trinda Love]

Cool,nice idea and execution

[Spanner]

Nice composition. I like how the cyclist looks like he is floating.

[Ken "Tasian"]

Love the high contrast with the rider…and the POV on this is great too!

I don't usually go for clipping at both ends of the histogram, but this works for your composition idea. Nice.
