I photograph bikes too!



A while ago i had an urge to photograph a Harley Davidson bike, but there are not too many of them around like the one above.

I happened to see this one being driven into a petrol station in Reading, so i pulled over to see if the owner would be interested in a few photo's of his bike in return for allowing me access to the bike for a couple of hours. A few weeks later we all met up at a empty car park at the back of a office block in Woodley on a warm summer evening. After we moved the bike and lights around for a while to get some good angles i managed to get an image the bike owner really liked.

The lead in line on the concrete takes your eye straight to the bike that was being lit by two lights at 90 degrees to the camera to get an overall light onto the the highly reflective painwork. I did a few more with the bike's owner in the frame on a recently tarmaced road.

A few weeks later i managed to get a poster designed with 4 or 5 images of the bike as a thank you to the owner for his time.
