Day 338 - Rolling

Dover, NH view map

OK, so this is a Self Portrait. I forgot to bring my timer/interval remote with me, so I had to rely on the "Focus on something close to where I will be" & 10 second timer approach.

Today's FGR Challenge is Butt Up, this was my original idea all along, to do something on the bike. It was a vacation day for me, but I had to run into work for a meeting. I loaded up my camera & tripod and had this spot in mind for my ride home. I am actually at the park at Dover Point, the boat launch is right behind the camera. The bike is up on the centerstand, I'm not moving at all. I did a kind of bang up job applying motion and radial blur to the scene and the wheels after the fact in CS4. I'm not all that impressed with the motion blur, I want the blur to be directional from left to right, when it actually is applied in a horizontal fashion back and forth so there is blur in front of the bike and behind it. If you look closely enough, you'd think I was oscillating on the thing instead of riding.
