Hey all,

I recently purchased a new Nikon D80 and thought I would share a pic I took today.

Let me know what you think.

I've been wallowing in my own chaotic and insecure delusions.

It's not bad. Reminds me of the pics that manufacturers take when they are trying to show you a new model without showing everything...

I can barely see it. Have you considered installing some fork reflectors to make it more visible?
If the state had not cut funding for the mental institutions, this project could never have happened.

I got the original effect by using a 70 watt light bulb hanging over the bike. I kept moving the light source until I got the desired effect.

Nikon D80 set to manual mode. ISO 200, F4, 1/3" I played a little with the contrast after some photoshop touch up.
