Rough Times but getting better

[Scoody]

My wife Azeneth and I are avid motorcyclists. It is one of our passions. On November 5th, Azeneth was involved in a serious motorcycle accident. She was very severly injured. Her recovery has been everything but easy, but she has fought on and made great strides.

Good to hear that your wife is improving. There are a lot of ways to improve this photo, if you want to hear.

Go for it.

You don't have to take my words for that. It is just opinions. There is a lens flare in from of her face. You might want to try using a lens hood or a Starbucks holder attaches to your lens. I think the wagon behind you and your wife maybe further to the left and separates from you guys. Add some dof so the buildings in the background have some blurs. I think the crop under your wife's knee need just a little lower. The sun looks like it is behind you, so you get shadow in front of you. You can get a white windshield sun shade, and have someone to hold for you to get reflected light in front of you and your wife. Or, you can try flash. Hope that helps.

Hope your wife will have a good recovery soon, and Happy New Year!

Well, I hope she keeps getting better buddy! Best of luck to you and the wife.

Oops, I made a mistake on my writing. Have narrower DOF to make the buildings blur in the background.

Sorry to hear of her accident. Riding motorcycles is something that one either understands or they don't, no middle ground. If one does ride then they understand why it's perfectly normal to ride 75 miles to a Starbucks for a cup of coffee, passing a half-dozen closer Starbucks stores on the way. I hope both of you come through this OK and can pick up where you left off.

Scoody, I'm sorry to hear about the accident and I'm glad to hear she's on the mend. I also know that this time probably has been pretty tough on both of you - but I hope it's something that you can use to remind yourself of just how important the little things really are in life.

Good luck to you both. I know recovery is tough on the caregiver/spouse too.

I sat in the saddle of a K100RT for many years from first thaw until after the flakes began to fall so I know what it's like to have riding in your blood and Scott's right. You either "get it" or you don't. When my first child was born, my wife was a stay at home mom so, weighing the risks, I sold my bike. Since then I lost two family members to bike accidents so I'm very grateful your wife is on the mend.

Boy, sorry to hear about the crash. Like the others, I'm glad your wife is on the right path! Not only have I seen some really bad days for motorcyclists in my line of work, but I also have several friends who have crashed badly. Fortunately, I've been lucky thus far. Though I think when my fiancé and I have kids, it'll be time to sell the motor. Until they grow up, at least..
