Try to fucus on these photos captured by Shukri. What can you say about them? You will notice that only the motorbike is in focus, everything else is blur. When you look closer at the wheels, you can see that the wheels are still spinning.

According to Shukri, the shutter speed of the camera is lower (just like the Limbo Rock - How LOW can you GO?) to a slow speed that is bordering the limit of causing the whole photo to be blurred due to unsteady hands. Don't forget, the motorbike is speeding at a blistering pace, much faster than the runners... :-) Nevermind, if this is too difficult to understand, just appreciate that this is sifu (master) skill.

Courting with danger - The red-white band is the border of a very wide road. But these riders chose to ride at the edge (for gaining split second advantage). x
