Here's a tidbit from the internet:
Indian Motorcycle performance fueled Burt Munro’s dogged pursuit of a world land speed record. The underfinanced New Zealander would not be denied, and he and his heavily modified Indian Scout finally set a world record of 183.586 mph in 1967 on the Bonneville Salt Flats. The record still stands, and, in fact, the speed was corrected to 184.087 mph by the AMA in 2014. Munro was 68 years old when he set the record, and his story was later the basis for the popular motion picture, “The World’s Fastest Indian.” The bike on which he set the record started as a 1926 600cc Indian Scout.

Good capture of a great-looking machine! It is unfortunate that the windshield of the Harley muted the color of the jacket worn by the lady with the helmet. It's also hard to photograph single-color objects, but you did a great job with this one.
I wonder if your friend would object to and Indian motorcycle? A friend of mine had a three-cylinder Indian with a two-stroke setup. That bike was crazy fast... |

This is a very nice photo. I wish there was more of the child's face in the image, but they move so fast, and their expressions are so brief, it's hard to do... not to mention that the parents often object to strangers taking pictures of their children. Well Done! |

I agree with David - I almost never use the Fuji flash because of the artifacts produced by the central placement of the flash unit. I have successfully used some fill-in flash units that will fire when they "see" another flash unit fire. Still, it's then hard to adjust the amount of fill-in to use to get an image that's not overexposed. Instead, maybe just use a small tripod with the delayed shutter settings.
The staff people are very creative with their towel sculptures! |

The colors in this image are wonderful. Everything seems to be glowing. The chairs provide the viewer with lots of places to explore the scene. Very Beautiful! |
