The diff between a lowside and a highside?

Quick281 · 11-05-2008, 09:46 PM

The first "high side" picture is part of a series that some photographer took somewhere in Asia.

The photographer noticed that there was an object hidden in a large puddle and bikers kept hitting it. He sat in wait and took pictures of people as they approached, he got a perfect series of that guy coming up and going over the handle bars, eating shit big time.

If I recall correctly he actually got in trouble with the authorities for taking the pictures and I believe publishing them.

Edit: I have no idea how to find the photos but I want to say it was in an AP article I read a while ago.

Never mind,I was gonna ask if that was real because mine looked a lot worse than that but I see by the title that it's a special effects shot...
