One year ago, I launched my YouTube channel,\u00a0DaysDayOut<\/em>, not knowing just how much it would grow in such a short time. Now, with almost 900 subscribers and more than 100 local riders in the Instagram<\/a> group, the community around these 125cc (and increasingly bigger) bike ride-outs has become something truly special. What better way to mark this milestone than by recreating one of my very first videos; the graffiti tunnel photoshoot in Newton Abbot?<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

A Look Back: The Graffiti Tunnel Ride<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

In my original video, I explored a set of graffiti-covered tunnels beneath the South Devon Expressway. It was a fun, but complex shoot, but it had an atmosphere that stuck with me. The artwork, the urban grit, and the moody lighting made for a great location. So, to celebrate DaysDayOut\u2019s<\/em> first anniversary, I wanted to revisit the tunnels and recreate that photoshoot, pushing the creative limits further than before.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Photos<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The first two photos show you what it looked like without and with my lighting. I think you’ll agree, the lighting really makes the bike and scene pop!<\/p>\n\n\n
