Everything in that video was insane. Does poo poo like this happen in the US as well, and we just don't get it on video, or is Russia as nuts as it looks?

There's longer videos of it but those guys with the 3-piece band on the sidecar rig are fantastic. That's the kind of poo poo you only ever see in Hanna-Barbera cartoons from the 70s.

When Russians get drunk, they get DRUNK. Cheap vodka is one hell of drug.

Couple this with the traditional Russian "we're hosed anyway, we can't change what's coming, so it's probably OK" style of fatalism plus the impossibility of efficiently governing and policing a country that big, with that low a population density and with such a storied history of corruption and hosed up things just tend to happen.

There are a couple of "we love America" videos on the same Youtube account. They're pretty good, too.

It's very un-subtlely HDR'ed, yep. I wanted it to look kind of propaganda poster-y. The lighting was standard museum dim fluorescent so un-doctored photos are pretty bland. 3 frames +-2ev with the camera sitting on a railing.

No, that's what happens when someone with no photographic eye realizes they've taken a boring picture and tries to "spice it up." It's the equivalent of someone in the kitchen dumping ALL THE SPICES on your food because hey, a little tastes good, right, so a lot tastes better!

We make fun of people like that in Creative Convention all the time. What's sad is, the subject itself is pretty interesting, and doesn't need a ton of lovely processing.

The only thing worse than HDR is the people who spurge the gently caress out about it at every opportunity.

Its the same with most techniques though, maybe you should get the RAWs and show him how to develop it properly rather than sperging so much.

This is straight from the (+0.0)RAW with just the crop. I don't really care if you sperg, after going through a couple hundred shots I was bored and it was very much a "dump in all the spices" shot. It takes like a minute in Aperture, I don't even own photoshop.

I feel like the leather actually looks like leather and that that seat just looks like boring plastic.

Not kidding, if anyone can help me figure out how to do this for any reasonable amount of money I will do it.

From the side car.

With a helmet cam.

I've already found a driver.

I live in the San Francisco Bay Area in California. Seriously, I can't find a league or association or what not that runs this kind of race in my area, but would enter it immediately given a chance.
