I was traveling to Atlanta for last few days (official visit). Coming back, I tried to capture some abstract of Honda monster bike, Honda Valkyrie Rune.

Honda showcases its monster bikes at CMH (Columbus, OH) airport. As Columbus is the production center of Honda bikes (and has one of the first US plant along with home of main Honda car plant), the airport is best place to show its (Honda) presence.

The details of this beauty (as written on the sider card),
"..streamlined dream packs eight-and-a-half feet of thunder into a body that appears sculpted instead of manufactured. All 794 pounds are powered by an 1832cc liquid-cooled six-cylinder engine. The flangeless fuel tank makes this bike "poetry in motion"....."

These are few captures.. nothing as great.. I just tried some abstracts with high ISO (low light situation).
Captured with Carl Zeiss Planar50mm f1.7 Contax mount lens, used with canon 350D/RebelXT camera.

Thanks Attila and Carsten.

Posting 2 more.. I dont know about this bike, another Honda Monster. These 2 are showcased at the Columbus Airport (as production center of these bikes).
(both with same CZ 50/1.7 lens) (clicking on the picture will take to the bigger size one)





Feel free to guess this monster Wink

hi Ballu, very nice photographic idea here.
My favorite is #3, would like to see it printed large size, I bet it would look gorgeous.

Hi, Ballu!

My favs are No.5 of the first set and No.2 of the second set.
But then, I am a DoF-fan!
