nice photos! pictures of your set up?

You mean how it's taken?  I mounted a camera on this arm "Manfrotto Magic Arm" and just slowly ride along.  Use 1.5 to 2sec shutter speed.    Done on dead quiet road of course.

Been bored and playing with some photography techniques in my garage:







Gosh... Ducati knows how to make beautiful things...

You know all those pics were shot using a flash light (maglite) in my garage.

Refub Nikon D5000 w/ kit lens.  $525 delivered.  

Oh and one of the above pics were made w/ a point and shoot Canon.  See if you can tell which.  Just to make the point, camera has little to do w/ the picture you can make.

Just to proof my point, both images below are from my Canon PowerShot S90, a point and shoot:





Not too bad, eh?

i find it hard to believe there is no photoshopping afterward...

Oh yeah, definitely have to use Photoshop overcome some physical limitations like i can't run around the bike fast enuf w/ a flash light in 15 sec (max shutter speed i can have).    If I have 2-3 people I can probably do it in one shot.  Right now I can only do part of the bike at a time.
 
The tank alone was one-pass however.  I just have to get rid of the spill light on the seat since my garage isnt' exactly 100% dark.
