Hi Mike


another superb set , I suspect he's a happy chappy again !

& I still want that helmet The last one is my favorite I think....possibly an image only a biker will really understand & it hit's the spot for me perfectly .

& I really hope there was a huge mahooosive space between the bike & the wire spinning in 4.....sacriledge to damage that paintwork ! But I love the idea , again ,it;s a bit different to the normal type of bike shot

Thanks for sharing again Mike

Thanks

i was about 15ft behind the bike when i span the wool, plus wind was blowing towards me to there was no danger of any hitting the bike

Cool photos number five all the way for me

How do you light such things. You don't have to tell if you don't want to

Edit_See the title says light painted.

I like no 2 the most. But I really hope non of those sparks where anywhere near the bike in 4. How did you get around that?

Awesome looking bike! I wouldn't give you tuppence for a "beamer" car but they really do know how to throw a bike together.
A really nice set of pictures too; lovely crisp images. If I had to choose a shot though it'd be #5 - looks real classy image.

got to be number 5 for me, can i ask though what kind of lighting you used for this?

 

[Daniel White]

It's a technique called wirewool. Search it in the forums. I do it quite a lot.

As said the wire wool shot is superb, very well executed.

No2 is nice, the comp works very well. I just wish the tones matched No1, as they are spot on!

 

[DizMatt]

that's a lovely looking bike!
great set, and #5 for me, for it's simplicity and subtle lighting.
great stuff

These are great.

The wire wool shot works especially well because you can't see the spinning element.
