handlebar

a sports bar in the west end has asked partner to see some photos about bikes and motorcycles and anything else sports related. so partner is going to "audition" this, along with a few of my other photos. apparently, people buy photos like this all the time. and a macro shot of a pig's snout. really now!

this is a lame attempt at an artistic shot. the coloured, almost untouched version is here: http://365project.org/summerfield/365/2013-09-16

nicely processed, but I like the purple!! ... this would fit better in a sports bar though. nice choice.

@cheribug - cool! but i swear to you, i draw the line on pig's snout. but if they want to pay a million dollar for it, i might change my mind, right? thank you, cheryl.

[cheryl]

OH I have a pig snout from the zoo yesterday!!!!! ;-)

[bkb in the city]

Glad they want to take a look at some of your photos. Good luck with that

[Sally Ings]

Very cool process. I also really like the colour version, but then I'm biased since I love purple! Best of luck with your pics, I hope they snap them up!

[dh (delena)]

I prefer the b&w version. Good luck!

[Nia]

While I like that pop of purple I can definitely see this as more of framed wall shot. Are the other images being auditioned in your albums?

[June]

Great B & W photo. I like the colour photo a bit better! Hope the audition of your photo's goes well. Good luck!

[Deb]

I think they'll like this one! I prefer the color version though. Here is a pigs out for you http://365project.org/deburahiru/365/2013-08-08

I prefer this version, I found the purple too distracting. Great shot and I love the different shapes.

[Kathy Burzynski]

Creative - wish you luck! And here I thought it was landscapes and sunsets! Guess I got to find some pigs

[summerfield]

@sianipops - i don't know yet. do i have anything in my album that is worth an audition? :-) thank you, nia.

[summerfield]

@cheribug - i saw the piiiiiiggggg!!!!! :-) if they're really interested, i'll pass on your link to them when i go next week. thanks, my cheribug.

@bkbinthecity - thank you, brian.

@salza - thank you, sally. here's wishing!

@dh - thank you, d.

@678tabby - thank you, june.

@deburahiru - hahaha! that snout was totally outrageously snouty! i'll give a link to your photo, too, if they're intereted in more snouts. as for me, i won't even go near any pig. gone through that when i was young back in the old country.

@sturnus - thank you, carol.

@myhrhelper - yuppies, that's why they like the unconventional. partner tells me it's like a bistro/sports bar. but if they buy my prints, i won't be complaining. just that i will leave the pig snouts to others.

thank you, folks, for your props and your support (and your pig snouts haha!). we do have a beautiful family here on 365, don't we?

[cheryl]

@summerfield that would be cool.. LOL. he was a droolie little hog.. :-)

[Nia]

@summerfield yes! Silly question😝I just got confused thinking it was bike specific photos, now though thouroughly confused with all the pig snouts! @deburahiru that is one cool close up of a pink snout.

[Cathrine Mitchell]

I love both photos but I must say I personally prefer this one in black and white. Let us know how you make out. I'm cheering for you.

[summerfield]

@cathrinemitch - thank you, cathy. i will see the owner on tuesday and will show him some of the shots i took the last couple of days. of course, i will let you guys know how it pans out.

[Abhijit]

very cool

[Claire]

Simply perfect

[Ann H. LeFevre]

Exciting! I do like the color version better, but this is good too. I think they'll like your stuff- I'd be surprised if it was otherwise.

[☠northy]

nice comp and awesome processing! can't wait to hear what they think of your photos... really hoping you get some shots sold!

[Tabbycat]

GReat contrast! ...and who doesn't love bw+cp??
