Posted for Edde - favorite pics??
« on: August 30, 2007, 03:33:36 PM »

Hi everyone,

Edde would like to solicit your opinion on which of his bazillion pictures are your favorites. He is trying to choose the best 6 pictures for a potential upcoming project and needs your help. Any takers for the barbershop disaster one? Send in your favorites soon - otherwise the choice will be all Edde's-scary!

My criteria was they had to show either Ed, his bike or both. Also, they had to be clearly on foreign soil. There are better pictures then these but I feel they wouldn't demonstrate that he is there doing this. There are 3 pictures I missing I'll have to find showing Ed with his bike apart and the locals helping fix stuff.

Thanks...I'm entering a few pics into a contest that will publish the winners pics in the form of a calendar(2008) for the Horizons Unlimited community...

So instead of picking my favorite pics as I know my taste isn't similar to popular choice, I'd ask for your feedback...

Thanks again for making the time to view my pics and for taking the time to help me pic some wining ones hopefully!!!

I had different criteria from James. I think people are more interested in seeing where a motocycle can take you than seeing the actual bike in every picture.

Short list:

http://www.motoedde.com/PicasaAlbums/Dogon_Country/target28.html
http://www.motoedde.com/PicasaAlbums/Southern_Algeria/target8.html
http://www.motoedde.com/PicasaAlbums/Tunisia/target7.html
http://www.motoedde.com/PicasaAlbums/Cappadocia/target0.html

More moto-ish pics could include:

I agree with James' criteria, I asked Edde to get some more shots with him in them as they will be the ones with the greatest significance in the future.

I do like Nicole's selections too tho.
If I had to choose for horizons:

http://www.motoedde.com/PicasaAlbums/Turkmenistan/target26.html
http://www.motoedde.com/PicasaAlbums/Monastery/target1.html
http://www.motoedde.com/PicasaAlbums/Leaving_Algeria/target21.html

what can I say, I like trucks Grin

Good choices, Aaron. I think it's important to demonstrate that he didn't have two trucks and a crew following him like some lightweights that have done this trip Wink

Thanks for the posts....

The contest unfortunately required a pic with a moto, and the ones below are the ones I submitted.

http://www.motoedde.com/PicasaAlbums/Niger/target26.html
http://www.motoedde.com/PicasaAlbums/Turkmenistan/target26.html
http://www.motoedde.com/PicasaAlbums/Western_Mongolia/target19.html
http://www.motoedde.com/PicasaAlbums/Southern_Algeria/target13.html

I think my best pics don't include my moto and my favorite pics from the trip are the three below...

http://www.motoedde.com/PicasaAlbums/Bamako_Onwards/target0.html
http://www.motoedde.com/PicasaAlbums/Kyrg_Week_2/target20.html
http://www.motoedde.com/PicasaAlbums/Koussanar_Etc/target17.html

And relative to James's observation...I haven't seen their movie yet, BUT if they rode those bikes through the some of the countries I rode through...its pretty impressive!! Now some of those nights in the tent, I wish I coulda called you guys on a sat phone to tell you how amazing of ride I had, etc...BUT luckily I was able to capture some of those moments on camera...and some of the travellers I travelled with captured some of those riding moments for me(thanks Etienne, David & Ingrid)~!!!!

Lastly, I had an easier time then most folk as I had a pretty solid bike in the K75 and it didn't cause me sleepless nights with any mechanical issues...so we are all blessed in some way, eh???
