    Bicycle Macro

    Hey all, here's some digital stuff I did about a month ago, tell me what you think.

    If you want to edit them and think it'll help a newbie out, that would be great!

    I like the last one a lot, though I wish it had a more natural background.

    Yep, perspective on the first and last shots are great, but I'd also try a background in the last similar to the first - something more natural as Canuck said, maybe just trees/grass or sky/trees

    Probably will just throw sky into that last picture. Gotta love technology! Most of these were taken in the backyard just for fun, but they turned out way better than I expected.

    I like the tire shot....that chain could use a shower and a lube job.

    That IS a good cleaning! You should have seen it 3 hours before! Chain is actually run on wax, not oil, so that dust coat won't flow inside the chain, see how the rollers are clean? It's really quiet too.

    I have drop bars on mine now though. WTB Dirt Drops, big flare.

    Thanks for the comments guys!
