Nice photo and we love pictures in here but why did the photographer who was shooting motorbikes plaster his stupid logo over a quarter of the bike. I wouldn't hire his services as you might not be able to see the product you pay for.

As a professional photographer that's a topic near and dear to me heart; and I agree with you 100%. I ran a survey on watermarks once and it was something like 70% or 80% of people HATE them on an image - they rate right up there with a dent, scratch, or bird poop on an expensive car - it always drays the eye straight to it and ruins the image.

In this case, I'm assuming the image wasn't paid for - so the watermark is the "what's in it for him". I wouldn't expect commissioned or paid-for images to be watermarked. Personally, I avoid them and just put basic date / title / artist info in the mat around the outside of the image.

Well its his personal portfolio, which he is not charging anyone for the photos, I am sure if you had to pay for his services the watermarks will not be there

Slightly off topic here.... i do not have diabetes, i keep myself checked up... I just have pale skin and hairy legs. a bit of a pointless comment really

Thank you Atabone :P So you live on the island of Malta. I bet it's beautiful there! The closest I've come to Malta is owning a Maltese dog (r.i.p.) What a smart and loving dog!
Tell me, How's the weather there year round?

:x Please ignore member you you's comment(s), yes, they were irrelevant and unnecessarily made.
I apologize for not seeing them sooner.
Me myself and I, are happy you've returned to share your beautiful photo's. Please do so again

Great Photo!

Luv my Thermoscud (in the winter).

The look on your face tells me you may be thinking about getting a windshield for that beauty as well.

thermoscud is awesome, keeps me nice warm and dry hehehe

Well I love the look of the bike with this standard windscreen, it has a bit of a sport bike look from the front, but the minute you put a high windscreen on it ends up looking too scooterish for my tastes, and living in Malta means i don't really have any motorways to deal with, so the little bit of highspeed roads we have is for a very short distance
