DO TELL

57 in a 30 a mile from work. Got another warning for my collection.

Took this one today, thought I'd share.

I mean the sun is shining and yer sittin' in a car...

Grafikfeat shared some interesting photos which are also outside the timeframe. This one appears to have been slightly retouched as well. With just enough helmet and the other rider in perfect position, this is one of the best helmet portraits I have seen.

I been meaning to respond to this... Space is my final frontier... The retouching involved was to crop the right side to square it off and some "burning in" of the sky... The rest is as seen from a box camera held at arms length at 50 mph. I too was rather surprised at the outcome of a $5.99 camera.

Thank you for the compliment!

I think it's the thread that keeps on giving, it's such a good topic.

Nice work!

The rules for this thread were "Photos must be shot between Fri. 05/30/08 and Sun. 06/07/08--10 days." I've been reprimanded TWICE for offending sensitive beemer feelings on this forum. With all the a*** retentive types this marque seems to attract I figured I best ask permission first

No argument here... Thanks for asking.

I think the rules of these threads are mainly to contain the posts and to ensure the images were taken with the particular concept or technique in mind. There are plenty of places to post the shots you have collected over the years. These assignments and the commentary within them are for those who are interested in further developing their photography.

That being said, if the assignment still resonates well after its official end, what better way to develop the ideas than to use the thread as a showcase for related images? Maybe even to get some feedback once in a while...
