Magic moments

[Rod 1975_imp]

That amazing motorcycle ride when you go at night, doing 180kmh and nature gives you a spectacular show of force and beauty, with thunderstorms on one side of the road and clear sky with an almost full moon and stars on the other... pure magic!



Wish I had a camera to capture the real ride

Awesome shots Rod!

Awesome indeed.

Awesome shots Rod!

The moment was real, but the image is not. Unfortunately I had no camera with me in that moment. I just picked a picture from the Internet to give you guys a feeling of what I experienced. But believe me, it was magic...

For a moment there I thought you had access and control of a 180 km/h-capable UAV.

GO, in this MotoGP article about the KymiRing circuit in Finland, there's an interesting video of a lap. You wonder if it's a drone until you see the shadows.

Gee, the flick almost seems unnatural.

I see the "camera" shadow, but the perspective of the shadow appears strange. I am wondering if it is an inertial and spatial sensor?

 

[Cormanus]

Weird, isn't it? I could see the pole in the shadow but nowhere else.

 

[GoldOxide_imp]

Yep, unnatural.

That's one thing I love about riding...Nature and all it has to offer.

Very cool.
