Night Rider

Posted by Barbara (Florida, United States) on 13 October 2008 in Abstract & Conceptual.

This fellow extended everything on his bicycle, towering over people as he rode by.
Captured hand held as I walked.
It is the softness and colors of the image that attracts me.

I think it actually works nicely. There is a nice sense of action.

Oh, I love this to bits . . it looks a longer period than 1/8th but the flow of motion really works.

@Ronnie 2¢: Actually it may have been slightly longer than 1/8th but not by much. The light from the walkway lamps kept the shutter time low. The image had so much flow to it.
I really appreciate you stopping by to comment, Thank you.

This is fun, Barb ...... it infers his motion very well. Beautiful light!

@Judy: Thank you Judy. Sometimes it is fun to just let loose and shoot carefree, never know what might be captured.

JJ from Jersey City, United States

the blur and softness in this work well together to make very eye pleasing capture

Cool shot. Bradenton doesn't have a place like this. It reminds me of a somewhat more suburban-looking Square like in Key West, except for the absence of wall to wall tourists watching the sunset.

@Viewfinder: Thanks VF. Crowd level may change after the huge condo/hotel is completed but for now Clearwater Beach has few people using this new beach walk. Any crowd at all, which is small, is near Pier 60 where the street performers are.
Key West... now that is a crowd.
