I had planned on scouting an outdoor location today. Since everything is still brown around here, I had my brain in to the black and white setting. (Bettcha you didn't know you could do that with your brain, didja?)
I drove past a bar on the way and saw three Harleys lined up in front of a wall painted with a huge American flag.
I drove by and thought to myself: "That might make a good picture someday."
As often happens, myself responded. "No...that'll make a good picture TODAY!"
Myself was right. Myself usually is. So I made an illegal...um...a questionable....U-turn and obeyed all traffic regulations on the way back, including the speed limit. Mostly.
I had a plan already in mind by the time I got back. I slapped my 14-24mm ultra wide angle lens on and started shooting.
I always kinda worry about shooting bikes like this. I gotta get REALLY close with this lens. I am always a little concerned that I'm gonna piss off an owner.
Well, one of the owners DID catch me shooting....
"Hey man! You're stealing my soul!" he cried. Ooops...
A little quick thinking... "Nope, I am immortalizing it forever."
He liked that. I slipped him one of my business cards, too. Meh, I'm a paramedic. Dealing with pissed off bikers should be on my resume somewhere.
Since I couldn't get my brain out of black and white mode (it gets stuck sometimes) I did the pictures in both color as well as B&W....
