Hi res bike photos

Posted on
  • We're remodeling the shop here and I was assigned the great job of art direction. ie picking out posters and what not. it's not so bad. I'm trying to get away from logo merch and promo shit from the companies we carry and do a classier look.I got a bunch of pre ww2 tour de France posters and a few retro track posters. this basically ate up my budget pretty quick. (which was tiny to begin with) I'm going out and shooting some people from out shops race team doing some mountain biking. But i'm really trying to find some decent artistic bike photos.

    I unno if anyone has some hi res photos that they took and would mind sharing them that would rule pretty hard. I know exactly what i'm looking for, bt i don't really know how to describe it. i guess its when i see it i will know.

    thanks.

  • when you say "sharing them" do you actually mean giving them to your boss for free to help him market his business on the cheap?

  • £10 plus postage will buy you Will's LFGSS poster. A bargain even for a small budget.

  • more or less yes.

    we're not some big high end shop. we're rider owned. the owner bought it as a former employee, and the owner before him did the same.

    we're a good shop. we have a great reputation of helping out and going out of our way for our customers. we have some of the highest repeat buisness i know of.

    but i know what yer saying. but like i said i have no budget. i'm lucky i got what i did. i don't really know what i can do. but i know a lot of photographers would just like to have some of their work displayed. i mean i'm usuing my photography.

    oh yeah! where can i order one of those?

  • PM me Emo; would be delighted to help.

  • Why not set them up as an exhibition / gallery style.

    You get them hung on your wall and they (or prints of them) are available for sale with the proceeds going to the photographer?

    I am sure you would much more likely to get a few willing participants that way

    a much better idea. Or could arrange a trade for one of your lightly damaged ex's...

    if we had actual wall space where the pictures could be viewed as such art then this MIGHT work. but we don't really. They're mostly behind counters and bikes and higher on walls.

  • if they cant be viewed then why bother putting them up ;)

  • theyre viewable, theyre just not prominently displayed. having werked n galleries before this isn't a preferred spot to display work for sale.

  • hey, what kind of bikes would you like in the pictures? I have some good shots of bmx and mtb, all good quality and resolution but nothing like fixed-hip-urban...
    I used to publish on a few mtb and bmx mags quite a lot

    oh, and I'm in need of some new wheels... ;-o

  • Where is this shop?

    any pictures really work. we're trying to keep it diverse. and as much as i'd be willing to try to hook you up with new wheels shipping would be a little ouch. the best i could really do on something that expensive would be item cost and like half shipping (if it would even be worth it. i have to look into the cost of shipping.)

  • where is the shop?
    well.. a good deal would still be better than nothing... ;-)
    I'll dig in some old work over the week end and put on a little selection on flickr...

  • oh shit i forgot to mention. i live in upstate New York in the US.

  • also to ship wheels it's around £21.

    if anyone wants to talk to me this in an easier way my AIM is emoxxxfag or my email is giantfightingrobots[at]gmail[dott]com

  • right.. pending a good price and a "gift" or "free sample" stamp on the parcel I think can be doable...
    well.. if you like any of my pictures, of course...

    will send you a link during the week end!
