My pic with a motion.

The scooter was invented in 1947 as a low cost alternative to the automobile in war-ravaged Europe – it was designed as transport for the masses and it caught on so quickly that it became one of the great transport phenomena to sweep the world in the 20th century. The Vespa (which means “wasp” in Italian) was the result of Enrico Piaggio’s determination to create a viable alternative to the automobile for the masses. As the war drew to a close, Enrico studied every possible solution to get production in his plants going again.

The focusing may not be great but I hope I got the motion.

Thanks and have a nice day!

nice daily life shot- I'm always amazed at how many people one scooter can carry- i've seen up to 5- nice action photo!

Best Regards,
Steve

More of a familiar sight and quite a dangerous shot =) Taking pictures while driving, not a good idea, almost hit the curb when I was doing the same before. Nice strong colors. I like the framing and the simple sig too. It doesn't attract much attention, which is a good thing.

You could have added some motion blur to tweak that motion effect that you are hoping for. The contrast slider just went up too much for my taste.

TFS Kabayan!
