    You know, I think maybe this is way better if I crop out the blown highlights. You think? I kind of like them.

    Re: Red

    I like the picture, I just think that the subject is too dark it kind of blends in with everything else. I would like to see the bike and the person stand out a little more.

    I kind of felt it was on the edge of that too.

    First thought: Ghost Rider.

    Second thought: I want to be there.

    Like everything but the off-the-charts white in the clouds.

    Yeah, I never really know how to feel about them. Blown highlights are bad, but I like the leading lines the provide into the photos. I wonder if I can recover detail from the raw.

    Pretty much seconding draymorton said. The blown highlights are very noticeable though.

    I scrolled the page up to eliminate the blown out section of the sky and like it much better. I also think if you would crop the right side over to about half way to the pole it would give you more of a feeling of the cure that is coming up in the road and add more interest, Jeff
