I visited many motorcycle events during 2006 and took around 30,000 digital
photographs. I have gone through them all picking out all photos of
Indian motorcycles. This was about 1400 photographs.
Some events such as the AMCA meets in Eustis FL and Oley PA had lots of
antique Indians to photograph but I came across
Indians at many other events.
I created a CD with all photos as 1280x960 jpeg files. I also created a DVD
slideshow movie that has background music and transitions between
slides.
An "Old Indian" means the original Indians made at the Springfield MA factory.
That makes up the vast majority of photos but I did include other bikes with
Indian logo I came across including a few very modern ones.
For many bikes I did a full 16 photo set that gives a good view of almost
every part of the bike. For other bikes there are just a few views and some
are just a single photo of a bike and rider going by. If the bike was in
a show and had a tag I usually take a close up of the tag so it can be
easily identified.
On both the CD and DVD the photos are arranged chronologically as they were
taken and grouped by the event they were taken in. Each event has a small
description and 3 typical photos of what the event was like followed by
the Indian photos taken at the event.
The CD is like
a big folder of files. You put the CD in your computer and look at the CD
and click the first photo to view it and then your software should allow you
to move forward and back and display it as a slide show. You will be able
to see lots of detail and do close ups. If you want to check details for
restorations you would want the CD.
The DVD has the photos presented as a slideshow movie with background music and
transition effects between the photos. If you want to just set back and
enjoy 90 minutes of Indians in all kinds of settings then you want the
DVD. Having both would work well too as they are organized the same so it
is not hard to go back and forth between them.
