At the heights of the pandemic out of boredom due to lockdowns implemented by the local government I started to explore the world of photography, since there's an extra camera in the house, so why not make use of it. With a bit of research, tutorial videos about the basics of photography and the techniques in using DSLR cameras somehow I find it very interesting. By then I first tried to capture motorcycle riders and bikers that passes by since I'm living along the road, so basically I started to take photos of moving subject in two wheels, and as I explore more in photography I then practice other categories like landscape, long-exposure, and portrait and I admit I need more practice on those categories, there's a lot of room for progress anyways in every aspects may it be on life, hobbies or passion.
Let me share my shots of two wheels during the heights of pandemic, I turned it into black and white for these photos will be my entry for the #monomad challenge by @monochromes as well. Check out the photos below.
Usually I positioned my self under the shades of trees and sometimes one knee on the ground to have a good angle of the subject and to have a comfortable shot at the same time, like what I did in the first photo, as you notice the lad was standing on his bike to put strength while going up on steep road.
Some were biking with their expensive road bikes considering that biking is also a form of exercise.
On the other hand these motorcycle deliveries are busy moving back and forth while carrying their storage boxes and goods likely going to the market for trade.
And somehow I managed to caught this delivery courier (LBC) despite its full swing of speed.
Thank you so much @qurator

Cool te see that Covid brought some people some nice hobbies.
I picked up my photography hobby again because there was not a lot else to do.
I like the shots in black and white. Nice work with the panning technique so the subject is sharp and the background is faded.
I would give the tip to keep a little bit more space around your subjects. Some of them are a bit tight and sometimes parts of the (motor)cycle even get cut off.
You can always cut off a bit of a photo afterwards.
Enjoy your new hobby!
I'll keep that in mind sir, thanks for the tip anyways, indeed sir pandemic brings oit our passion and hobbies more time to explore since theres nothing else to do.
