Well here are a couple of pics I took yesterday.  I ended up having to use my cell phone since for some unknown reason the wife decided to remove the memory card from the good camera and I didn't know it until I tried to take a picture and kept getting an error.  I am working on taking some more pictures in the coming weeks that will hopefully be much better.

Tweaking - This first photo is really cool. And your bike is so nice!

Bankerdanny recommended I get a pic over here for the October Halloween pic. Hmmm, most of my best shots of my bike are vertical format. I'll have to get out this weekend and take a bunch of horizontal shots. We're going to a day of the dead party on Saturday, may be able to get another interesting shot there. :) These two I took for Halloween I took it in the daytime, so to make it look spooky, i did photoshop it and add some atmosphere to the shot. But that's my dirty daily driver….

Thanks. It's just computer digital trickery.
I really prefer straight black and white photography done in the darkroom.

I have higher res also, and was planning to photoshop out some of the bg crap.  Lemme know if you'd like that to happen.

This is a 1972 cb500k1.

Here's one taken last week. A pumpkin patch and a little cooler weather is about all we have here in California that says Fall is here.
