good places to get bike pictures

When I get my bike back next week I want to get some nice pictures of it, I love the picture PJ had of his Panigale taken at BM. But that’s been done so don’t want to copy it, but that’s the type of thing I mean. That pic looked like it could’ve been a promo shoot in a ducati catalogue.

I was thinking something like an urban scene (graffiti wall or similar) but what makes a good (local) back drop for a motorcycle picture?

Ride it onto that pedestrian bridge in central, great place for some photos…

That is next to my office, not sure I’d get the same allowance as MM93 though :slight_smile:

There’s an interesting alleyway/tunnel near Waterloo full of graffiti that would be good

This sites going hipster .

Lol, no chance of that with me, I’m seriously unhipster!!

I just want a cool photo of my bike for a screensaver on my work computer :slight_smile:

ello sam.

on the weekends the city around finsbury square is practically deserted. I may recommend taking a walk around broadgate and seeing if you can find a nice backdrop. there are many pedestrian only places where you could push your bike to and take some pictures with nobody around

also, 2 minutes walk is shoreditch.

i personally prefer the glass / aluminium / money look but it’s your preference :slight_smile:

I prefer a bird in a bikini with her norks pushed up … now thats classy background material .

i am actually up for chipping in like £50 to hire a chick to do a photo shoot with our bikes.

Ally Pally makes for a good photo background. Don’t if that’s to far for you?
You can use both the palace or the city as background.

It’s not babe’s in bikini, but it’s alright :Wow:

If gritty urban graffiti is what you’re after, then it’s a shame that you’ve just missed the Heygate coming down as some of the work there was really good. Perhaps you could photoshop your bike onto these and never have to leave your garage?

Or if you want a jaunt to Bristol:

Apologies for the lack of attractive young lasses willing to get their kit off for you :crying:

I’d be up for that too, I’ve got a mate who is a professional photographer who could do the pics as he has all the screens and backdrops etc

That’s the exact type of thing I was thinking of as the colours are pretty similar to my bike

That heygate was weird at first. I was about it once it was all closed off. Driving round it was strange like being in the omega man or zombie apocalypse. found all sorts in the garages, cars,bbikes boats etc

Oh god, braindead moment: I totally forgot that I went to these peeps for their ‘open day’ a few years back when they advertised it on VD

You just need a redhead on it

:slight_smile:

Very Nice, But not sure i’d be happy about those Heels on my Fresh Paintwork!!!

But Knowing my luck i’m gonna end up with something more like this…

:ermm: maybe she should rest them on the handlebar grips

Oh my, so obliging

lol.

That’s the

“I can see the head” Position :slight_smile:
