this photo is great--one of my few 9's--can't believe you didn't score higher!

Congratulations John---I didn't really understand you were moving when you made this pix. This was a very dificult shot.

Probably the most interesting reflection shot in this challenge (and there are a lot of them).
06/15/2002 11:33:00 AM
Great pic "9"
06/14/2002 06:36:00 PM
This photo really draws you in the more you look at it....
06/14/2002 11:06:00 AM
That looks dangerous with the camera on the bike!! Cool perspective though, and nice and sharp. I like it.
06/14/2002 10:40:00 AM
Looks dangerous, but I like it.
06/13/2002 09:46:00 AM
Conveys a sense of movement nicely, hopefully that was a deserted road! Great shot
06/13/2002 06:56:00 AM
I really like the feeling of motion in this shot. The reflection of you taking a photograph of your self is classic! The only thing I would suggest about compostion would involve the power lines, but this is good enough that I suspect you have already considered that issue.
06/12/2002 08:31:00 PM
A tricky photo to take. well done.
06/12/2002 07:53:00 PM
Nice choice of angle!
06/12/2002 07:42:00 PM
Gives a whole new meanin to "shoot from the lip!"

dangerous, but then so was mine ; ) ..
06/12/2002 06:43:00 AM
Cool!
06/11/2002 08:45:00 PM
Great focus, neat idea. The reflected colors are nice and vivid, giving it a fun feeling.
06/11/2002 05:29:00 PM
road out of focus, camera should be out of picture.
06/11/2002 12:16:00 PM
Cool shot
06/11/2002 09:32:00 AM
Love the colours in this and the sense of speed from the blurred background
06/11/2002 09:02:00 AM
Daredevil! Pretty cool and well done. Photo 10 Creativity 8 Road 9 total 9
06/11/2002 07:27:00 AM
that's pretty neat
06/10/2002 09:33:00 PM
at least it is not a mirror
06/10/2002 08:18:00 PM
creativety 7 interesting 7 focus 9 framing 9 = 8
06/10/2002 05:57:00 PM
Nice, very well done! I like that you were able to get a completely uncluttered background.
06/10/2002 05:11:00 PM
Great shot. You are as crazy as I am, shooting on the run like this. Top 3 for me.
06/10/2002 03:39:00 PM
Awesome, and dangerous. Thats a mix I like.
06/10/2002 01:48:00 PM
Nice shot, well done.
06/10/2002 01:31:00 PM
It's neato, but too bad that you can see yourself taking the photo. But reflections are always cool!
06/10/2002 12:05:00 PM
Great creativiry and balance, nice shot!
06/10/2002 11:27:00 AM
good idea
06/10/2002 11:16:00 AM
I think you see now that you should have been off the bike and out of the reflection.Every thing else is great--the out of focus and pleasing background--the nice crisp chrome--everything important is in focus!!!!
The rider and camera degrades a fine pix.
06/10/2002 10:05:00 AM
This photo makes it into every challenge.
06/10/2002 09:37:00 AM
Neat color, and I like the motion blur on the road.
06/10/2002 09:34:00 AM
Don't forget to look up at the road once in a while. Great picture, I like the motion blur, this could only be done as a self portrat? One of my top ten.
06/10/2002 08:06:00 AM
nice...metal doo-hicky could have been a little more polished.
06/10/2002 06:25:00 AM
Very cool shot, I wish you could've done more so as not to show yourself takin the shot -- maybe use your other hand to take the shot and keep your left hand on the grip.
06/10/2002 01:06:00 AM
I think a tighter crop would have made this more eye catching but I'm sure just getting this shot was difficult for you.
