Thundersprint 2011.

In all honesty I wasn't particularly impressed with this years Thundersprint. It didn't seem even half as interesting as it usually does. It wasn't as busy as previous years either. Though I suppose the miserable weather didn't help that in any way!
Motorbikes have never really been an interest of mine. Not unless they were vintage. I absolutely adore the old triumph bikes. So small, and cute, I love them. They are the only model of bike I would have. and if I had one of them I wouldn't ride, just show it off. So this didn't really help the lack of atmosphere when looking for inspiration to shoot.
I did manage to get three photos I'm quite fond of. Would you care to see them?

I love this image because the bike looks as though it is standing tall, proud in fact. There aren't many bright colours and this image might look better if turned in to black and white as there would then be a variety of tones. There are some ever so slight reflections that can be seen here too and as you have probably figured, I do love a good reflection.

This image probably isn't classed as being photographically correct however I like it. I like the business of it, theres a lot going on and at some points the collection of bikes all seem to merge into one because of the lack of contrast.

I absolutely LOVE the symetry of this image. The small blue details as well make the image far more interesting as well for me, picking up and little a little more interest. The rain adds texture to the photograph as well, which then reflects a bit light in the black, nicely polished paint. This, was one of the prettier bikes there - from a girls point of view of course.

Done, dusted, three of my favourite Thundersprint photographs finally blogged. Oh and you never know, next years might improve. Or we can hope so anyway.
