Dave, I dig the dining car. A lot of those were manufactured here in NJ and shipped out. They have an interesting history and evolution
We have a very similar one in town.

I have the same issue...so I am thinking of those closeup, emblem/detail type shots....Maybe...LOL...
Ok Guys. I dug through my archives and pulled this one because it's seems more than just another nice photo of my GS1000. Obviously a little Photoshop massaging.

We appreciate your transparency, Sandy.
hehehe
Man, I'm really on the fence now... I set up and made some pics in the garage tonight, but I also have a great overall shot of the bike I took over the summer - one of the best ones of it I have.... decisions, decisions.
LOL...I did the same thing last night, but didn't really get what I wanted. I've got 18 minutes till golden hour starts. Hoping to get something then.
Norm ! Great picture of a great bike!
And a scene reflected in the tank .... you weirdo !
.
Well this turned out to be more difficult than I imagined. Who the heck came with this theme????
Anyway...here ya go...
Between jury duty and getting ready for Thanksgiving, I was pretty much limited to a close up, artistic type, in the garage/drive photo....
Tried at sundown, at night, and again at sunrise. 70+ photos...and not much...
But this one from this morning worked for me, with sunrise back lighting the bike...
It was not what I was looking for, and much like another recent picture, but the bokeh from this old Canon manual lens is just incredible.
(A 50mm on my M4/3 camera is equivalent to a 100mm on a full frame camera.)
Panasonic GX85, Canon FD 50mm @ f/2, 1/160, ISO 200

It was difficult for me as well, but I'm going with the picture from last night.
It was interesting and educational setting up the lights in such a way as to not cast distracting shadows or harsh highlights. Also, in the fashion of concept bike and some ad copy pics, I removed the distracting mirror. I also found that once a good lighting setup is found don't change it until you're absolutely sure you're finished. I tried to recreate one and could not.
I had three lights in play.

Not a very interesting or glamour shot but the best one i have of that bike.
I think the lake in the background offers a blue backdrop that sort of matches the striping on the tank.
I also think Salty Monk should use this pic as an advertisement on his dual disc upgrade. haha.

Very tidy and stunning original example of a GS1000 you have there. I'm envious.
Happy Friday! Hope everyone had a great Thanksgiving! Lots of great pictures this week, so lets get started. If I missed anyone let me know.
