did you photoshop the kids photo or is that bloody good use of depth of field and focus? any chance you could PM or post how you did it.

Look at the blur in the middle of the indicator stalk.
background clarity/blur beetween background in the wheel and outside it.
and the arrow shows a in focus bit of the wall/fence in the gap beetween rear wheel frame.



Its still a good photo stu

But I get paid to ride Motorbikes! (ok, it's sounds more glamorous than it really is! )

One day maybe, I'll get a good job.

Camera is a Sony DSC-H4 on the kids pic I think, and yes it's photo-shopped. It didn't take long, I was just playing and following a tutorial I saw in a magazine.

Basically, you create a duplicate layer, then use the magnetic lasso tool around your subject (in this case it was the mt and the kids) then delete the area you just cut out and apply a gaussian blur to the rest of that layer.

Job done. Then I just tweaked the levels a bit to make the colours stand out a bit.

Thanks mate I'll try harder next time!

I gotta work out how to use it properly. All Adobe CS software seems freaking awesome, but you need to be as smart as Einstein to work out how to use them!

Here's one I took at work earlier. This is The Wuf

Big thanks to Apophis and Minter for replacing the clutch plates for me! It's really fast!

I got a 14 tooth sprocket on the front, it gets to ~75 sooo fast in comparison to my other MT. Yesterday afternoon I pulled a wheelie by accident in 2nd gear. Made my pants dirty.

Anyway, this is the bike I'm taking to South Wales, it's my Dirt Bike (The RAPist is my road bike). I'm only using this for work temporarily because my throttle cable snapped yesterday on the other one

~~ BEHOLD THE AWESOMENESS ~~

But what happened to the plastic tank? You know the one you had a Stafford- that had real class.
