Ducati...!

Damn, damn damn...It's enough to make a poor man puke. This image is sooooo almost there, but it is the last 5% that always kills you. Not being able to make that final hump. I refer of course to the reflection of the building in the windshield and myself in the headlight. This is for MelBob

I sees yer in dat der duc headlight.... can't quite make out the camera though? ... in fact both of you are there... one in each light!

Very clean bike.... probably only gets ridden every second Sunday... to church?

Very good Trav but just not quite as good as 'the lady in black' ceptin... I'd rather have one of these than a shower fitting ... lol

Taveller, please don't talk ugly about your work. What if I like this? Can't you allow me to enjoy it? *grin* Seriously, you've already told me I don't like it before I've even gotten to examine it.

I think the building adds interest. Perhaps I'd have cloned myself out... but perhaps not. Maybe up the blues/cyan a bit for more excitement with the sky? Make the reflection a focal point? Use the 'defect' to your advantage. For my particular weird style, I'd up the contrast for punch, but it's good this way, too. ~Lydia
