By all that's holy, I gotta win with this pic. The lighting is nice, the detail is clear, and the theme is sweet and the bike is HAWT!!!

Primus inter pares - first among equals.

Not sure this qualifies as it is a composite but as I stood in my unploughed driveway this morning I'ld try and photochop this together as "Warmer Days Remembered"

8 x ~ $5.5k/RS125 + $9k/shiver = $53k MSRP

Yup, and that is far more than i have right now.

I like it. Looks cool.

Winner.

I like it... definitley fits (most) of our mindsets right now...

Eh,

I'm not really a fan.

But good luck

You're bitter b/c you dont have an entry this month.

It just got posted...And I could easily go out and take a picture to enter.

I honestly dont like the composotion of the picture...the Fade of the Bikes looks offset compared to the backdrop...and the sttempt to blend in the grass in the original pisture to make it look like snow is well, Weak.

I have an opinion on it thats all...i dont HATE It, I just dont like it all that much.

but then I guess... why post? :idk:


yeah the potoshop job could have been cleaner... but not many here are great with photoshop... and it's better than I could have done...


also I think the blend was good in the grass... you'd have to see the original to say it wasn't right... as to me it looks as the part your talking about is just in trampled snow.

Its the internet, why do we post anything??

Because we can.

Jesus sorry I said anything

This isn't a professional photography contest. Period. It's a contest on which picture evokes the most reaction and emotion from the voters. And this picture does that. The snow picture currently on the front page does that. Are either of them the greatest picture of all time? Of course not....but they get a reaction.

Aye Aye Captain

It's popularity, it's a general population vote, not a room full of artistic judges. Take your pics based on that.

Nice Rick...maybe the flames from the Victory will melt that $hit away !! :lol:

I don't like it either.

For you photoshop folks here are the two original pictures taken in the same place, my driveway

and to paraphrase Dr. McCoy; I am a drug counselor not a photo tech dammit

i think it looks cool

My pic could help your pic move some of that snow :lol:

Taken today for a Facebook photo contest... it was a Christmas present from my Mother sitting on top of my Mini Cooper in the garage.

I am nothing if not persistent. :p Kinda like genital warts.

Genital warts are a real problem for some people, not just a joke to throw around..:leaving:

:lol: T-Rock's got a case of the Sanchez! Drewpy... better get yourself checked!

Yikes.

I 2nd that :rockout:

Here's me at JGP Jan 3rd. Had to drive 12 hours each way to get there for only a day of riding. But it was worth it.

Nice pic.

Me on my 150R just days ago, it was 15 degrees and fun as hell can't wait to do it again.

Nice

Thanks!

There are more in the bike photo section, I got a lot faster at the end of the day but everyone was to cold to take off there gloves and take a photo.

Yeah, I saw that. I haven't examined the fairing yet since it's still in the 30s here and I just got this picture Wednesday.
