I had the pleasure of shooting a very historic Harley Davidson as well as it’s new age brother this weekend.
What we have here ladies and gentlemen is a very rare, 1947 HD Knucklehead. Now, you may be asking yourself why this is so rare. Well, that’s because this particular bike only has 6 original, unrestored miles on it. You know you’re old when the wiring harness is made of multi-colored cloth wire insulation.
We also have a 2000 HD Soft tail Deuce.
It’s a beautiful thing to see two bikes of the same make, in similar cosmetic conditions, side by side. Only 53 years apart in age. Talk about taking a trip back in time.
In any case – On to the photos. Tools used:
1. My new Parabolic Light Modifier by Paul C. Buff
2. Alien Bees – B1600 Light
3. Portable power with a Vagabond II by Paul C. Buff
4. A Sigma DG500 Super To the right of the motorcycles
5. All triggered with PocketWizard Plus II’s.
