You can select your own themes since I have none when I clicked the shutter. Since composition is also a matter of individual taste, I would like to explain why some of my motorcycle pictures have slanting angles in their compositions.

It has to do with some creativity in the pictures, especially motorsports. I think all of you may have already come across similar pictures of motorcycle racers in photo magazines or books showing such pictures in a conventional manner.

I like to have mine in a more creative manner by slanting the camera angles towards the right or left at a 45° direction between horizontal and vertical formats. Compare the photo below of a slanting angle of a bike racer to the conventional version above.

However, this technique is not exactly mine. Full-time American and European photographers specialising in motorsports have been shooting their pictures in this way for years but you won't be able to find this technique being featured from any photography magazines, books or photography institutions. It is your own choice.
