Description ...me, myself and two wheels -2-...

Switzerland // Zurich // Freestyle.ch
Rider: some guy..(I was too busy photographing )

This is the next piece of my "MX-Series", made @ the freestyle.ch in Zurich.
I made about 550 shots in those 3 days (puhh, i'm glad my camera's a digital )
This picture jumped right on me when i looked'em trough, so i tought i should submit it..

The only thing that bothers me a bit is the sky..Well, you can't control weather, i guess..

Hope some of you like actionpics like this...

also fΓΌr jounalismus ist das bild echt geil!! aber wenn du den boden weggeschnitten hΓ€ttest, wΓ€re es kΓΌ nstlerisch vieleicht etwas bedeutender, da es mehr fragen offen gelassen hΓ€ tte....

dennoch gut sauberes bild!!

Heaps of colour saturation in this, but I think the bright colours suit this action packed shot.

You know Im an MX fan, so I may be bias, however I think this is a brilliant shot.

man, that pic is hella sweet!!!!! kick ass dude! although you may not like the sky, i like how there are ripples of clouds here and there, but around the biker, it's pure white. sorta like he's highlighted there. and the sheer number of ppl just staring at him in awe. man, he got air!

Great image... but what i don't understand is... it's the bike pasted into the image? it looks like a drawing... great anyway.

creatyves In reply to dalan [2003-10-09 15:11:23 +0000 UTC]

Nope...It's definitely not pasted...(that would be pretty lame, wouldn't it..!?)
It's probably because of the BG, that it looks like it is...

wow, that is excellent.
Awesome composition, gives such a sense of height. Love the contrast between the packed crowd low down and the solitary person in the sky

I think the fast shutter speed was a good choice too. Freazing the rider really makes him look still (obviously) and brings out the height of the jump.

Awesome shot !

Wow this is great. I really love it. And I like the sky, it doesn't distract you from everything else. The colors are beautiful.. and I know its got to be nice to have a digi camera.. I burn through rolls of film like fire through wood... or something o.O

Keep up the good work. I'm anxious to see what's next from this series.

"The only thing that bothers me a bit is the sky..Well, you can't control weather, i guess"

Yes, don't you just wish you could direct the weather like a model? Yeah, that's great, now just give a wisp of cloud and leave all the rest blue...that's it! Perfect!

This is a great action shot. Just exactly how high is this guy in the air...it doesn't look like you took it from an angled up view. And tell me that there was some safety net for if there wasn't this guy is crazy

alku [2003-10-07 17:20:44 +0000 UTC]

The white sky gives the colour more dominate power in this shot, and the highness just gives a great feeling! Great shot, keep it going!

i disagree... i like the sky! with the background in white the contrast is much more hard and powerful.

good work!

hehe great capture.... I love the crowd, they are (obviously) all looking up.... you could put an elephant (or some other impossible thing) instead of the biker... it would become a funny art pic....

Ok, stop teasing, the composition is perfect, I can't wait to see the others....
