    I am gong to love this one. I love storms. The sheer force of and angry mother nature. Several times recently I have been riding home and mega black clouds were in the skies to the east. Guess I will start taking my camera more often.

    Nice photos. You should change one to your avatar so we don't have to keep looking at the damn Flyers jersey. I think I like the 2nd one best, but they're all good shots.

    Thanks guys! I am a photographer and hate to carry around my Nikon D2x on the bike, even though I have a massive Fieldsheer tank bag. Because of that, I purchased an HTC Thunderbolt 4G phone with an 8 Megapixel camera. That's where these shots come into play :)

    Figure my avatar will stay the way it is for some time ;-)

    Is the resolution quality enough for the calendar submissions? It's 1952 x 3264.

    Calendar shots must be un touched and in landscape format. First photo could have been a candidate based on the subject of the photo but it is a little dark, and it is not landscape. Too bad. But keep snapping those shots. I have a folder on my desk top to put any photos I take of my ride that I consider candidates for the next years calendar. It is empty right now. WTFIUWT.

    man PA that's one dirty bike..... I'm just a novice Photographer (I shoot with a canon rebel) but I am willing to bet that this picture would be awesome if you had some external lighting..of course you would have to set the shot up and lug all the equipment around...LOL thats what the wife/girlfriend/Significant other, is for right?.... cool picture with a cell phone.... I tried to lighten the bike up a bit in photoshop then I saw how dirty it was...LOL

    Thanks guys. The bike is not dirty at all. I had just waxed it moments prior to this. It's just the way the ISO is read on the camera I guess? Here are 2 other photos, 1 from the same time and other from earlier in the day:

    Both taken with my cell phone.
