Challenge 1102: Joe's new motorbike
My son Joe bought a new motorbike recently, a touring model he intends to use for long distances (as opposed to the smaller bike he uses around London). I got him to pose on it for this shot.

Can you place him somewhere more exotic, worth of the trip? And perhaps persuade him to wear his helmet? I've done the cutout for you.

High res is here.

That is not without its own particular set of problems Steve .......

If you haven't seen the movie this may not make sense at all, but it was quick and easy. Jack's helmet on Joe solves the recognition problem.

I was thinking Easy Rider too! But I couldn't think how to incorporate his modern bike into it. This is very neat Loyd.

Anxious to avoid any further helmet mockery from David Mac, Joe has found the one place where wearing it would be really un-cool.

Round and round... Joe has more 'guts' than I could ever muster. Good idea David.

Wales, Australia and Oklahoma! This boy is really getting around!

Now, appropriately enough, he's taken his Africa Twin on safari.

Suddenly he's not feeling quite so bad about boring old Dad whanglng on constantly about using a helmet ...........

We are on the same wave-length David... had to visit Africa. Yours is much more exciting than mine.

Like the roundabout David, great idea. Hope the rhino doesn't catch up.
Nice trip around the world Loyd. Brooklyn?

Not Brooklyn… Google stated that it was a cobblestone street in Brussels.

With the Brooklyn Bridge in the background? Methinks Google is mistaken.

The dust in this is really impressive Frank.

The hardest most time consuming thing in my rhino image was the dust. I am very impressed by yours.

Re: Challenge 1102: Joe's new motorbike
Thanks David but most of the dust was in the original image, I just did some masking and used some of my dust and debris brushes to add to it.
