• After reading this post in the porn thread yesterday...

    It's a nice photo too.

    I think I actually prefer great photos of normal bikes to normal photos of 'porn' bikes.

    Everyone takes photos of their bikes. I took some yesterday; They showed the bike, but did very little for me as pictures.

    Once in a while though, I see one that makes me stop & look for a bit longer. Appreciating it as a picture in itself, whether that be through use of composition, or simply the positive feelings I might get from seeing it. I couldn't see any similar threads ( brief search ) so I'll start this one. I won't be too surprised to see it get merged though. I'm sure I've seen something like this somewhere ( another forum perhaps? )

    Please don't use this thread to post up all the usual sweaty old glamour girls draped over a shiny fixie. There's plenty of other sites that appreciate that sad, tired old shite.

    Here's my first attempt.

    Whilst I was looking at examples of custom Ti bikes this morning, I saw this photo by an mtbr member called Drevil http://forums.mtbr.com/singlespeed/how-much-does-your-ss-weigh-803101-3.html

    Although the bike itself is a love it or hate it affair, I was drawn to the picture. The composition is a bit unorthodox, but I find that my eye contiually moves around to different details within the scene. Overall, I find it to be quite a calming image & I think I'll be using it as a desktop background for a while.

    Anyone else?
