I like it, very sweet airbrushing work, the vines almost look real.

When I saw the title, I just knew it would be a bike!
Someone did nice work on that.

Thanks guys, I think by the end of this summer I will be able to shoot bikes with no reflextions, Not as nice as the setup you have access to PhotosGuy but it will be portable and I hope effective.

Wow, what a paint job! And I am going to guess there is a S&S motor sitting under there.

Still a very nice bike. I am working on building up my own custom bobber with an S&S.
Just out of curiosity, how much did that paint job cost?

Been a while, can't remember, I'll find out it was cheap I thought at the time.

What setup are you thinking of? Except for a few shots from decades ago in this Tips thread, & a few indoor car shows, everything I've posted here was shot outside.

Well, yes. A minimum of $1,500 & my good looks will allow me to rent a studio. These guys won't pay that, so I wait for the right light outside.

Here's a thread with a few shots using a building as a white flat in pics 2, 3, & 8:
