      Redman's is near perfect. Upright and hardly distorted. That's my fav this week.

          As far as shadows Burque73 gets my vote for having most of the frame filled with shadow. Definitely a large one.

            Voting for Redman. I like how the shadow starts long then shortens as it hits the bank. Nice late afternoon (or early morning) sun on the nose of the bike too.

            i also liked the stark winter lighting on Lurch’s. It even looks cold.

              Redman's makes me think of Peter Pan. Cool shot!

                Saturday Tally

                I was thinking that Sandy's was the best over all picture, quite a majestic scene and pose.
                But for the subject/theme, I was thinking of 3 other shots also. Wasnt going to be too picky about Roger Burques pic seemed to be shot by his passenger.
                Then got involved in stuff and didnt get back to vote.

                Lurch 1, Redman 2, Roger Burque 4

                Roger, What you have of us this coming week...?

                  A late vote for Redman, not just for the stand up shadow, but the way the nose of the bike fairing balances the whole thing.

                  However, Burque73 still wins, with or without my vote.

                      Thanks for the votes guys. I'm glad you liked the shadow pic my wife took. She usually hesitates to hold anything in her hand while on the bike in case she drops it. At that moment she felt confident enough to snap some pics.

                      I'll have another one up here shortly for us.

                              Ha Ha to you too. I don't have time to go shoot something new so here is one from a few years ago. Neighbouring ski town of Fernie, BC. Sorry, it's just a crappy old cell phone photo. LOL.

                                That looks pretty good to me Sandy, but then again all of my photos are crappy cell phone shots.
