But... Where's the Motor?

Rhyolite, NV view map

I can't help but think that this figure appears disappointed at realizing this is not a motorcycle.
As Dan, David, and Glenn can attest, there were many times when I was outwardly lamenting
not being on a motorcycle as we drove on some wonderful stretches of twisty pavement.

Again, some experimenting with light painting on the unique art installations at the Open Air Museum in Rhyolite.

Wow! I have seen this twice in person, but never at night. Hauntingly beautiful. V

Superbly lit and photographed, Sam. I agree with Carol, it is eerie. :)

not only the lack of a chain as David mentioned, but the lack of petals could prove even more of a disappointment. Terrific use of the light sticks Sam. Really like what you did here. "V"

the lack of a chain should prove further disappointing...excellent capture of this spectral figure....judicious placement of the lights too..V

Stunning display of light colours...a bit creepy but that's part
of the charm!

When poised with that caption it really looks to be asking that question...nice Sam.
