Wow... I'm confused with this picture!
What's the motorcycle resting on? It looks like it's floating in air.
A snail?!
The background is blurred, but I think it's just out of focus.
There's some blur in the front wheel, because it's spinning, but the back wheel isn't.
Is this bike moving or not?
It's a cute idea -- I like the idea. Perhaps if you'd managed to get both wheels spinning and get a little motion in the background this would have been a more clever shot.
funny! cropping so we don't see the bottom of the tires might strengthen the illusion - well, and a spinning back tire! As I think about shooting something like this - I think I'd need two or three assistants and a snail wrangler! So I appreciate how difficult this shot was to get - but just a little more work and it would be a contender! 6
Well it took me a moment to realize the background blur wasn't what you were trying to show as motion but rather the front wheel in motion. Doh! This is such a strange photo that I have to give this a 7!
poor little bugger! this is very sweet in a sick and funny kind of way, though the illusion is somewhat shattered by the fact that only one wheel is spinning (the front, oddly) and it all looks like it's suspended in air. if you cropped the shot 1mm above the bottom edge of the tyres (and spun the back wheel) i think it would probably be a top 5 contender. 6.
I hope this doesn't win. This seriously doesn't do anything for me, obviously a really setup shot, the wheels aren't touching the ground, the back wheel isn't spinning...this was a great idea, but executed very poorly in my opinion.
