Shut(ter) up and ride →[More:] You're invited to an Art Party. If you happen to be in Fort Worth Saturday, and can see some of my photos along with other "cycling photographs from photographing cyclists".

They used one of my pictures for the poster. How cool.

How cool!

So you took those while cycling? Is there special equipment involved?

Those are awesome .. the colors are so vivid and crisp. Makes me want to haul my bike out of the barn and go for a ride.

I use very specialized equipment:

A point-and-shoot camera (with a wrist strap and protection plan for when I don't use the wrist strap).

the colors are so vivid and crisp.

I usually play with the contrast and intensity of the colors. The second one in my comment, however, is totally untouched; it came out of the camera that way.

You would not be alone.

Ha! You must be more coordinated than me - I can't imagine being able to ride a bike *and* take cool pictures at the same time!

I've only broken my arm once doing it.
