This is Byron. He is parting with his Harley and we decided to take some pics before he sells it.
Lighting by Max Quigley.
Lit with my 580exII with snoot at the left of camera at the back of the room pointed towards Byron's right side and my 430 handheld by Max high over my right shoulder and pointed down at Byron as to not cast any shadows on the back wall.

The title is a play on AlexSaberi's entryfor the Duotone III challenge.

Agree w/ Judi! In this case, the voters not only suck, they suck ... BIG TIME!

I'm a biker and forgive me but, I ride a sportbike - a Ducati, but I digress. Frankly I like your style with this. IMO, an extraordinary photo.

This image is outstanding and the voters suck. This image deserved way higher than it did!

Now...for your punishment for losing to me....hmmmm!

Boy oh boy would I ever like to vote on this one but since I was holding the light for you I have to pass. It turned out fantastic, like that's a surprise. I have the best times shooting with you Leo and I look forward to many more. Your a great friend and photographer. I hope this does well and you kick Judi's butt, in spite of the ideas I've given her for punishment :)

All the best to you and yours.

MAX!
