Photo request - travelling

[Magnum]

I've seen a few threads on here with photos of bikes at the side of a road that really give the impression of travelling, and exploration.
It would really help with my project i have, if some members that took these photos could post them here for some inspiration.
Any photos you have that could be related to travelling and bikes would be appreciated :smt023

[Luckypants]

Is this the kind of thing you want?

they look great, but you know someone's parked a h*nda in every one of your shots???

[Magnum]

Yea thats exactly what i want thanks.
I won't ever use any photos posted in this thread as my own work, and if i wish to do a 'photo analysis' (of other peoples work) for my sketchbook i will ask the member first ;)

Because I binned the SV about 6 weeks before my Euro Trip in 2007, so have no shots of that in travelling mode! Here are some from a rideout though, cos she was my beautiful baby!

Shows the difference between someone who can take pictures and me, who takes snaps. Fizz got some amazing shots of the Mulberry harbour on that trip to.

[missyburd]

Yours is fab too Mike, the whole backdrop is ace.

[fizzwheel]

to kind both of you. I dont really know if theres any technique behind what I'm doing, I just kinda line up the photo and then press the button.

I know how to work my camera alot better now, most of the time its just trial and error.

Same here but I think you need to have an eye for a good pic which you seem to have :) My camera has so many settings, I just don't have the time to get my head around them all!

Here's one, but I don't seem to have many of nice scenic bike ones, maybe that's to do with the YC's bike not being overly photogenic :rolleyes: :mrgreen:

It's a Skidmarx one. Bought it off Ebay for £40 & painted it myself.
Here is a link :) http://www.skidmarx.co.uk/section/fairings/cockpit/intro.html

Does look nice on a curvy, but my painting skills arent too good & it has flaked quite badly. I have put my indicators on differently to make it look more aesthetic. :)

wow thanks Tim, youve done a fair few miles! I'm going to struggle getting decent pics though... i cant think of any scenic roads like most in this thread.
