Very nice bike! Why did you crop? Not a big fan of the street lamp pole in the background

I think I'd have framed the first one higher - no street and some night sky over the buildings.

Second one needs better background (nice building, mural, open field, ...) and less crop.

Third and fourth need leveled and again are cropped to close for my taste.

I like what everyone has said.... Thanks... The only thing is i never cropped any of them lol They are straight from the camera.

My take.
#1. I was going for a light trail of the cars passing by.`
#2. On the bike i was just taking a quick break and snapped a few.
#3. My main focus was on the Comcast Center light. If i would have captured a wider range i think it would have completely ruined it.
#4.I think i have some wider range one's there was really nothing else around.

Try and shoot the Harley nearer sunset when the light's a bit nicer. Also it needs to have a more interesting background.

Good set of images, if they were mine, I'd crop the street in the first as it adds little of interest and the second I'd have also tried in portrait mode. .

+1. Lovely picture if you can get rid of the street foreground.

I agree with the compositons in camera, the end results look badly cropped.

Watch what you are photographing at before clicking:D See it how you want it to be.


you're a great friend, but if Zombies chase us, I am tripping you.
