Americade Motorcycle Rally photo winner

Along with Christmas greetings from friends, the mailman brought another nice surprise this afternoon ... A handsome check for the publication of two of my photos from Americade, taken this summer.  They are published on page 42 of the Americade Times which is available online, and will be available in hard copy to the hundreds of participants at the June 7-11, 2011 Motorcycle Rally in Lake George, NY.  To see the 2011 Americade Times Magazine, click here.

My "balloon glow" photo is the only full-page photo in the 52-page magazine, with the exception of the cover page. It was taken with my Nikon D300s on a tripod at f/3.5 for 4 seconds at ISO 3200.

The motorcycle light parade judging photo, published at the lower left of the page, was also taken with my D300s on a tripod, but at f/5.0 for .8 secs at ISO 2500.

 

Here's Eric and "Big Bee", our Pearl Yellow Honda Goldwing Motortrike conversion, in good company in a field of bikes at Americade.  (She's under a fancy new rain cover which was much-needed for the 3 days we were up there .. Think sun for 2011!)
