Sunday at the local pub is a big day for the bikies... I snuck a shot this shot before they noticed me :o)

Check out the skull and crossbones! Be careful Kylie. Your composition is great.

@Steve Rice: I know it's mad isn't it! I have an image coming up tomorrow I think of the pub they were all in, you wouldn't cross the riders in a dark alley that's for sure! Thanks for your lovely comments, Steve, always a pleasure to read!

hey Kylie! i am back in the loop! how have things been? :) great shot here -- a wonderful detailing of the captivating chrome on these bikes! i love to sneak shots of these types of bike too! but i always feel a bit anxious as if the owner is going to see me and start chasing me down the street or something! ;) great angle -- i don't seem to see you reflected anywhere in any of the reflections! are you there and i missed it?

@dj.tigersprout: Hey, DJ, WELCOME BACK! So nice to read you... how was your trip? It feels like you have been gone for ages!!! Lots of exciting images on A-3 that I am sure you will catch up on one day LOL, not much other news than that. Ahh yes this was a sneaky, I didn't realise the owner was sitting in the pub behind me watching me LOL, but he was cool, he actually came out a little later and posed with his bike. I took a few images that day but this was the only one I managed NOT to be caught in the reflection, I didn't realise how hard that was with so much chrome! Trust you to pick up on that detail! Great to have you back, looking forward to some of your images and the wonderful adventures your stories take us on. Thanks for stopping by DJ!

Wicked shot Ky, great detail and really sharp! Brilliant composition:-) I think it would have been quite cute to see you reflected in the chrome of the headlight....but then thats me being the odd one lol

@Linerberry: ... you... odd, NEVER! Thanks for your lovely comments girlfriend!
Rui from Leiria, Portugal
Great shot! The details are stunning. And the composition too. Those bikers have just the "bad looking guys" but in reality they're cool guys! Very well done Kylie

Great details and indeed very hard to capture without ending up in the picture yourself :)

Brilliant shot Kylie, but real bikers wouldn't mind you admiring or taking photos - just so long as you don't touch :) and this is a lovely bike.

@Observing: You are right Mike, he ended up being quite proud of the fact that I had chosen his bike out of the line up to take an image of, although I must say this is not what I had expected when he was walking up to me and asking me what the photo was for :o), thanks for stopping by!

I'm glad you were able to get this. My guess is that even though the bike looks a little intimidating the owner would have been ok with you taking a photo of it.

you have been very discreet because we can't even see your reflection in the bike !

Nice shot. I like how you captured the logo and the yellow wires as well so that it isn't just one big mass of chrome.
