Obviously heavily processed but this is the first of a number of themes I will post using this bike.

Hi Matt

Not too sure about this pic. The bike is great.

It looks to me as if you have put the shadow of the bike in plus the right hand column seems to have no base to it! IMO I find the background just a little too distracting.

Look forward to seeing the other themes

Thanks sirhc55!

It got a bit out of hand...mainly what distracts me is the orange reflector....I tried a number of times to tone it down but only seemed to make it worse. Think I might have to clone it out.

Actually Matt I was going to mention that as well - if the shadow is a mask it might work a bit better by being a tad lower IMO.

Keep em comin’

Hmmm...

Matt. You got this shot much better than I did (as I was expecting!), but it looks like you had similar problems with the background being to #$#% distracting. Maybe we need to go back & reshoot :cry:

You are right about the original background being difficult. But I think with a bit of creativity and PP I could make something better out of it. Might give it another try in a few days time.

These are all cool but I think the second one in this thread is my favourite. Looks menacing! You've done a great job with the PS work.
