10 Booker - Please kids don't try this at home.

10) Booker - Please kids, don't try this at home.

I'm a fan of lonely road shots and I had to limit what I was choosing for this gallery, because, if left unchecked, I would have chosen 10 different shots of long roads and highways. There's something about this type of photography that makes me feel at home. The past 5 years of my life, I've traveled quite a bit, most of it by car. Truth is, I love being on the road and in motion, whether in a vehicle or on my bicycle.

This shot, besides being a technical mind-fuck (HOW DID YOU TAKE THIS?????), evokes so many of those feelings in me. I think the decision to shoot it in black and white makes it all the more powerful. Colors blur into the asphault; the detail on Booker's boot and pant leg are stunning. Clearly, the man took a risk both in taking this photo and sharing it with us. Thank you.

This shot is all about two things to me - speed and attitude. Awesome.

good point about trying this at home, well, unless you have a very long driveway.

Oh, my God! This has got to be one of those 'once-in-a-lifetime' shots!
Simply brilliant! =D
