Sky riding a ledge

Posted by Dylan (Delhi, United States) on 10 March 2008 in Sport & Recreation.

I figured it was fitting to post a biking picture today, seeing as how I start my new job today working for Greenfish Adventure Sports (http://www.greenfishsports.com/). They are an online biking store. This is a shot of my friend Sky from early last fall.

A fine action shot. The blurred effect conveys a sense of speed very well.

I like this ghostly, blurred ifigure behind the well-lit girders. Nice shot.

Very cool shot. Did you use a flashgun or is all the light coming from the big floodlight bottom right?

@owen: The sculpture is lit by the light bottom right. The blur is created by all the ambient and the frozen bike/rider is from a flash. All in one exposure.

Like this! I like the lighting on this and the blurred figure adds to an already surreal feel.

Excellent picture, with an interesting motion effect. I also like the composition and the opposition of colours between fore and background. Nice one
