[Photo Feature]: Motorcycling Posters - xBhp.com : The Global Indian Biking Community

Old Fox · 01-02-2009, 01:32 PM

Hi! Everyone,

Our love for anything on two-wheels is what has brought us together here on xBhp. And quite like our unique personalities, the way we perceive this love for motorcycling comes also forth with its own individuality.

This thread is about letting those feelings flow as pictures, with some expressive text, that makes its audience befriend the 'soul of the rider' that dwells within you. A combination that reveals, compliments and shares your passion for all things 'motorcycle' with your brethren, here on this forum and across the globe, the reach limited only by the limits of the net.

There is but one simple expectation from you here: please use only pictures taken by you or 'of you' by your friends. No 'off the net' pics with text (also probably 'off the net'

) pasted on. The text though can be from anywhere...as most of those good words have already been said by the big n famous

.

I'll make a start with two of such posters that I'd made sometime back. Both the shots were taken in Spiti.

Uncage that rider...

@ani: Not much of a 'method' here

. Open Jpeg in PS - Convert to gray scale, change mode to RGB, use 'Graphic Pen' filter (horizontal strokes here with 'light/dark balance' biased towards dark) and finish with a touch of contrast increase.

I was more under the impression of posters like these

The first one is absolutely brilliant, and I am sure, Sunny is giving a wide grin and looking at his collection of the GIR, GAuR, GNzR for now~!
