I did a commercial shoot for a nearby bike shop today, the material's mostly not available for showing here. But this one is - and of all, it's my favorite. Just a bit of fun :D

Enjoy (bicycle) photography,

    Nice!

    One of those shots that shows--just keep your eyes open, there's a shot nearly everywhere.

    It's not Toga, if you're thinking of them... though I've done a job for them, too :D and I used to live across the street from them on West End Avenue. No, this is a little shop growing big in a heartbeat. Fairly new, not in Manhattan.

    it's neat to post these asinine comments of mine and usually everybody goes through them like they're not there (wishful thinking?)-

    anyway, look how many I'm close to posting-

    Andy,

    It is a very curious shot. Very shallow DOF, but obviously enough to cover the plane of the object. I keep coming back to look at the shot. The lines and shapes.

    The "unspoken" truth. (How'd I do George?) I guess I'll never "tire" of looking at it. Maybe we should stick a "fork" in it and see if it's done. (Too late, it's already there.)

    Awe man, see what George did to me?

    Anyway, (slapping myself silly) it's a most interesting photograph.

    Thanks for sharing,

    Thanks, Andy...I bought that lens! Always nice to know what other's can do with their lens and what lens they might choose for a particular shot!

    Nice to see something out of the ordinary :):
    Andy, if I may ask, do you have any problems with that lens/camera combination at wider apertures?

    Cool shot Andy the spokes seem to point out different points of intrest in the shot.

    Thanks

    Thanks Andy - we must have a faulty one. I tried it and had bad fall off up to f8.

    Thanks again.
