Becareful, don't fall down! I like the movement sensation.
Posted by Joaquín Arias at June 4, 2008 03:33 AMFamous last pictures ...
Posted by Kristof Doffing at June 4, 2008 04:13 AMWhat a shot! I keep staring at it, wondering how you managed it. Great work, as always...
Posted by JulieM at June 4, 2008 07:00 AMYeah! Another!
Posted by apothe at June 4, 2008 07:01 AMForgive me for loving these photos; Sam, please be careful!
Posted by apothe at June 4, 2008 07:03 AMWow, this picture is full of motion!
Posted by Deniss at June 4, 2008 07:23 AMawesome !
I really have the sensation to ride with the bike.
Nice effect of movement.
The mad cyclist/photographer is at it again with no hands! You left your bike computer at home, but I'd say you're going about 60km/h ?! he he.
eeek-- watch the fence!
I like this motion shot. Good job!
Look, Ma! No hands!
Cool :)
Amazing shot! I enjoy all your work, but this one really blows me away! It's rare that simply looking at a photo can make me feel dizzy, but this one does! Way to invoke that feeling! Great work!
Posted by Rob at June 4, 2008 08:57 AMhaha love your bike shots. very skilled :D
Posted by jessica at June 4, 2008 09:39 AMThat's just cool! Nice shot!
Posted by Darcy at June 4, 2008 10:07 AMI can ride my bike with no handlebars, no handlebars, no handlebars.....
I can change the world with a PHOTOGRAPH!
Posted by chrissy at June 4, 2008 10:22 AMWow. These shots (w/ heavy motion blur) always make me feel like I'm being drawn in. I love the "no hands", it makes us think about how dangerous it was to get the photo!
Posted by Robert Guthrow at June 4, 2008 10:37 AMLook for the lady with the green coat. She is about to cross the road. Maybe it's too late ;)
Cool image!
Nice!
I tried to do this the other day (early in the morning when no one was around in town) but I kept finding that I couldn't hold the camera still enough to get a shot where the background wasn't all blurred. What speed are you going when you take the shot, and what exposure settings do you use?
Thanks,
Hugh
Wow, it's going too fast for me !
Posted by Pop9 at June 4, 2008 01:23 PMBeautiful.
Posted by thegrip at June 4, 2008 03:01 PMActually, anyone who knows Sam, knows that he is holding the bike, But, he can make himself invisible.
At least that's what he told me when I thought he didn't show up at my birthday party. Sam told me he was there, but he made himself invisible as a gift to me. Awesome trick! He totally got me!!
Watch out ladies bathrooms!

Posted by coop at June 4, 2008 03:16 PMThis is an excellent photo. It should be submitted to publications and will surely win awards. It should be submitted to TIME magazine with the caption "U.S. Govt - Who is at the helm?"
Wow Sam, you amaze me once again!
I can't wait to get back home (traveling for two weeks around Scotland at the moment) so I can get out my bike and my 10mm lens and try something similar. I love it, well done and thank you for the inspiration :)
Posted by Ed O'Keeffe at June 4, 2008 06:04 PMAmazing shot! I love it!!
Posted by Mona at June 5, 2008 03:52 PMi tried to do this the other day... with out camera.. after many years of not even being on a bike... it didnt work out so well...lol

Posted by Leisa at June 5, 2008 04:00 PMI'm gonna have to try one of these shots soon. I was playing with the motion blur in Photoshop. Very cool.
Posted by Alan at June 5, 2008 04:27 PMAMAZING!!!

Posted by Xavier Rey at June 6, 2008 06:25 PMI actually had a bit of vertigo there looking at that shot!

Posted by danthro at June 11, 2008 01:41 PMWonderful, so they finally produced a bicycle with an autopilot feature.
Its a bit like the world through the eyes of a bicycle.
