My Camera is fucking lame.



Those are great shots (except for one...one of those sucked but I will let it slide since the rest of the shots were great)

I took thousands of photos from the seat of my motorcycle at speed, many with a Fuji S5000 and the rest with a Nikon D70s. It becomes somewhat automated after a while, and you can get some unreal shots.

Edited to add: I never took any leaned over like that. Amazing.

I need a better camera

I have been doing this some with my point and shoot, photos never turn out well for me. Seems like he rests the camera some of the tall tankbag he has and that would probably help some a lot, it's like anything, just practice and it become second nature.

For the rear shots, I wonder if he is using a mount.

Here is how he does the front shots, rests the camera on the tankbag.

It's like dragging your hand with your knee on the ground, once you get use to using your legs, it's not much work for your arms and you don't have to use both.
