p.1 #1 · #366 Back to basics


The auto industry has been hit hard and solutions are being sought in smaller, cheaper models. Rumour has it that Ford is bringing out something called the Model T. In the meanwhile the bike industry has been working along the same lines and Harley Davidson has unveiled their new economy roadster. I managed to get this sneak preview:

Nice! I like this shot a lot!

Nice conversion too.

How did you get the graduation on the reflective surface?

Beautifully captured and lit. Probably the only Harley I could afford!

Thanks Andy. I was using my external flash to bounce light off the ceiling. The angle of my camera and the inability to direct the light exactly where I wanted meant that I could only light either the top or the lower part of the image. The result is not unpleasing though so I stuck with this version. Cheers.

Quite the opposite from unpleasing, it's great! It just adds something to it. I guess you were going for high-key? I don't think it would be as good if you did. The graduation just adds something IMHO.

Best of luck

Now that's what I call original thinking, It's probably the new 883. Go Harley go.



Happy shooting,
Yakim.
