The Motorcycle Malfunction

Shot from the hip (ughh...still uncomfortable with street captures) as I walked by this couple in the parking lot. Edited to add a 1960s vibe (and hide the fact that it wasn't as clear as I would've liked)

A round of applause for Lin who dared to capture a street photo. It's a good one and definitely gets the mind to wondering the story behind the scene. I like the processing and framing as well.

[Julie Duncan]

Great candid, Lin! MM's are the worst! ;)

[Lin]

@lyndemc Thanks, Denise. I really plan to practice the street shots more! Appreciate you stopping by.

[Lin]

@juliedduncan Thanks so much, Julie...I hope he was able to get it fixed and back on the road!

[Lady Magpie (Heather)]

On yer bike Lin, a snap of the unknowing public. Good brave capture.

[What's for dessert?]

Nice shot and processing!

[Kay Hodges]

[jerry plume]

Your not alone! I still have to get my street shot for the day! Great hip shot! Love the processing!

[Debbie]

Great editing and good straight from the hip shot.

[HippieChick13]

very Easy Rider! love it!

[vstap]

Well done. I'm uncomfortable in these situations, too. But I would have tried for this one too.

[Lin]

@ladymagpie LOL - Thanks, Heather...I was lucky because they were so intent on the bike, they didn't know I was walking by!

[Lin]

@whatsfordessert @kbird61 Thanks so much, girls!

[Lin]

@orangecrush Thanks, Jerry....I didn't like the capture until I did the processing!

[MB]

Great shot! Love the polaroid look!

[Lin]

@debbie3108 Thanks, Debbie - appreciate the visit!

[Lin]

@hippiechick13 Thanks, I thought of Easy Rider when I saw that couple!

[Lin]

@vstap Thanks so much...I'm hoping the more street captures I do, the more comfortable I'll be!

[Stephanie Swift]

Good candid capture and the editing works well.

[Jane Anderson]

Many street photographers prefer black and white, I have noticed.

[CINDY JOHNSON]

I really like this one

[Nita]

I like what you got from the hip! Perfectly edited for the scene.

[Paula]

Liking the vintagey feel to it:)

[Richard Hickey]

Cool picture.

[Lin]

@tristansmum Thanks so much, Stephanie!

[Lin]

@cejaanderson I used the black and white version to help with the fact that it was a bit out of focus - it looked much better!

[Lin]

@pittcj17 @sansjuan @westcoastwallis @agedrunner Thanks so much for viewing and commenting!

[Hazel]

Welll done for the street capture and I like your title. I also like to use that processing sometimes!
