For the record, it’s clearly not a Zagato, but it is my own tribute to the bike that set me off on my often quite intense and consuming Guzzi journey. And that bike had a Zagato badge. When I was 15 I fell in love with the model, decades later and now an old fart, I fell for the bike! Here .. And to keep the thread on track, it’s a professional model photographed by a professional snapper for a Davida advert
I find the photographers don't agree with my demands... Apparently wheelie bins aren't "aesthetically pleasing"....
Get your bike featured in a magazine, then you normally get a bunch of shots without having to pay for them. You'll never take a shot as good as they do as you'll never put the effort in. I was trying to load a photo of a magazine shoot on my old 851 but it doesn't look like I can load photos to this site anymore? The amount of gear used is beyond an amateur to be honest. Although it was a lovely day the static shots used two rechargeable studio lights, the tracking shots a suction mount on the back of the van with radio control shutter release, lots of different lenses were used. To do a simple shoot took a couple of hours. I'm half handy with a camera and found it really interesting to watch. Definitely get a professional to take the shots!
Apparently I couldn't upload photos because I'd been logged out! Here is a shot of the photographer, note the 2 studio lamps.
