Interesting Muzza.
I would remove the second one from the top to give it a more even flow.

Is this one better?

I think the second one is a big improvement as its more fluid, the first was a little cluttered by having the extra exposure that didn't really flow smoothly from the previous and next exposures.

If you had a chance to do this from a better angle (probably not possible) it would of had more impact.

Yeah unfortunately there was a huge crowd around them, making getting a good shot pretty hard. Also my neice was getting sick of them by this time and I had to take her on a ride!!!

Thanks for looking

Luckily for him the bikes are specially modified and the seats are removed :wink: otherwise it could get painful!

Cool concept but it's still cluttered due to the angle.

They're trial bikes Muzza :) Trial bikes are specifically built w/out seats.

I like the concept, but is it just me, or is it a bit wild on the saturation?

nice vibrant colours here. Good image. Is making an image like this as simple as just using layers and a tripod?

What I did was take multiple shots (handheld!) and then keep one (where he is ontop!) then cut and paste the rider and bike only onto that one! then you have to painstakingly delete inbetween the spokes and other parts without deleting the right bits you need to keep! Takes time but is wirth it! Each cut and pasted piece creates another layer so you can just delete that layer and not the others!

I hope this explains everything!

I rather liked the brighter colours, do you think I have over done it?
