In the clip, you may see some more fire traces,
actual scenery isn't bad if not look closer enough.

P.S.: Here, LA; hard to see rainbows...ha ha ha, thanks for the photos

Re: Picture A Day

Nice video, nice road, nice ride, nice weather. It's amazing how you can ride for 8 min., 8 miles, and only see 1 car, 1 truck, 1 motorcycle, and 1 house. Where does that road go, where does it connect to? Nobody lives out there I guess, probably the best part of the ride, not seeing anyone else so you can enjoy it all by yourself, not like being in the L.A. traffic and having to split lanes and smell all the exhausts on your face.
The video is nice and smooth, no real vibration, can hear the engine sounds, but any way to cut down more on the wind noise with something covering the mike a little more?

Hi, Mr. MM.
O.K. let me put bigger cotton over the speaker next time..
Last year, with GZ250, I rode same place, there is a ride-report on this forum ??
At that time, if I remember correctly, there were no single vehicle during the whole riding.
I even put my tripod at the center of road about 30 min....
Strangely, this road is very quite..
This road is actually(?) part of Angeles Crest Highway, even though it has it's own name (for my opinion)

Ha ha ha,
1 Car >> Forest Mainternance Crew
1 Motorcycle >> Police
1 Truck >> ?? >> not sure, seems some fire recovery crew ???

Thanks for the comments.

Re: Picture A Day

Well i figured out the daytime blur effect on water. Not the greatest shot, but it worked.

Hey, I like that. The fall colors really make the shot.

Maybe a lot of people think the road is still closed. Then again, that doesn't explain why there was nobody on it last time you rode it with the GZ/
