Just me...#-- has the edge for artistic effect !
#7 & #8..are out front for "well done"...but then...I'm no judge...and I'm tone deaf also :D

EDIT: I'm doped up on pain pills tonight ..I meant that for "artistic affect", Photo #5 has the lead ! :D

[Sin City Stan]

Just me...#3 has the edge for artistic effect !

I have to agree, #8 is especially well done. The photographer is a master. Someone truly gifted. A handosme fellow at that. :D

[Silent Sam]

Yea that's the one I voted for every time...Locale..Weather..Back Ground Color against that "Cool Blue"..Makes me thirsty..glad to be in the wind...liking my bike ...a smile for sure !

...Yea...and some Attitude ! :tup:

[RBurleson]

I like #3 & #4 for just having a great visual and showcasing only these great Nomads!

[dshelly]

What happens in lieu of a tie ????

[koga]

#3!!

[Hvyhau8272]

#4 The photograph delivers to the viewer what I believe the photographer wanted to show with the image. It is more than just the bike even though the bike is the subject matter. Great depth in the picture. #5 and #8 are also great photos.

Because it was dubbed "photo contest" and not "bike photo contest" I pick #5 for the artistery of it. Something classic about black and white. Let's face it, scoots and nice looking ladies go well together too.:tup:

You lose.....:wave:

That's what I noticed during the first round when picking the final 9. It seemed to lean toward a photo contest than a bike photo contest but didn't want to say anything incase it was just my feeling. Glad to see a mix made it to the final 9. I know 7 out of the 9 owners of pictures and have seen 3 of the bikes in person. Good luck to you all.

photo #4, wonderful! :tup:

[dmyers]

They are all nice photos
While #4 & #5 are easily the two best photographs I had to go with
#7 While with some editing the photo could have been better. the photographer
got a lot in to the picture. A Nomad looking down a nice Two lane into a tree filled valley with soaring mountains in the background,, Just makes me want to jump on my bike and go there
