    Nice shot - I think it's the newest model out from "Cowasaki!" It gets excellent grass mileage and all-leather is standard.

    Good eye. I hope you took a lot of shots of this guy from a lot of different angles. There are so many interesting aspects of this that I really not sure where to start--it is Texas, the saddle has lots of interesting details, his face would make a great portrait, etc.

    Good shot and good post processing.

    Thanks Larry and Patrick!

    Larry - I need to run my pics by you before I post them! "Cowasaki" would have been a much better title! :-)

    Patrick - You are correct about there being other shots here as well. Regretfully I only took this one and one similiar pose. Taking more and different shots of the same subject is definitely something I need to improve on!

    Regards,
    Barry

    Now this is way too cool Barry. You do have an eye for the unusual.

    Great job finding the not so ordinary aspects of everyday life.

    Barry, I am going to have to get Photomatix Pro as I just love the way you post process your photos with this software. Good catch! I love it!!

    Thank you Shirley!

    I can highly recommend Photomatix software for HDR conversions! Photomatix, Virtual Photographer (Free download) and Topaz Adjust basically make up my whole bag of tricks (so far anyway). :-)

    Cheers!
