Looks like something out of a video game trailer. I like it!

You are right!!! Imagine a masked thug bursting out of the doors in the background, hopping on the bike and taking off like a mad man!!!

Thanx!

Looks good but this is the second static shot of yon retro kwacker that I've seen of yours. Perhaps you could try sticking the camera around your neck with a w/a lens and firing away whilst in motion for something slightly different.

I've been wanting to get a shot in motion, just trying to figure out how to mount.......

Yeah, the chromatic aberrations are bad too. Background makes me sad and overall static composition.

Like the colors of the bike and the way you filled the frame. But the background is big a distraction IMO.

I don't know, I like the whole set up really. It does make it look like somebody is about to come out of the doors and ride off. Good job

Focal Length: 50mm
Aperture: f/1.8
Exposure Time: 3.000 s
ISO equiv: 100

You have the right idea with that, but in order for the f/1.8 aperture to help blur the background, you need to get the bike farther away from the background. And a bright background just makes the bike look darker.

Better would be to find a better background & better light to shoot it in. See the links in my Sig.
