Shot this gorgeous thing with my Fuji GW690III and some Portra 400NC. Forgot I had a yellow filter on the lens. :bang:

I think it looks good , got that retro look.

 

[Kenj8246]

Well, you're just a retro kinda guy. I think I'd have gotten a better response if I'd just talked about taking the pic and asked RFFers what they thought about it or how it made them feel.

Makes me feel retro. I like the yellowed/aged effect.

The background is busy/distracting.

 

[Kenj8246]

Yeah, it is, Frank. But there wasn't much I could've done about it since the bike doesn't belong to me. And, I'm not a Photoshopper. 🙂

I think that the retro approach is very fitting due to the bike using 60+ year old technology. Well Done!

Thanks 1joel1, thanks for taking the time to look.

Oh, come on. It's said in jest as motorcycles are very polarising. They are among the most brand loyal people just like cameras. Truly, I didn't intend to sound mean or snarky and appologize if it came off that way. I ride with people who have all kinds of bikes and if I had the money, I'd have a Harley as well.

No offense taken; I was sincerely saying thanks for taking the time to look. It seems to me that a lot of the bandwidth this forum uses is devoted to talking about cameras. I kinda like to take pics with mine.
