An outtake from the "eyes closed" challenge that I keep going back to. This was taken in Fort Worth's T&P station. It is a frequent destination for the Night Riders, because of the tavern that operates there,
I had originally entered this outtake from "Urban landscapes" (not much urban in the image, which is why it wasn't entered) but the blurred bike shot just connects with me an I went with my gut. I'll probably get creamed for it, but you never know for sure around here.

Very clever turning this street picture of people and transportation into a study of lines and shapes. The two people are the leaning lines of the title while the bicycle wheels are the circle o's of the title. B&W was the better choice because the bold contrast between light and shadow can be accented/played up more. Color would not have been as effective in calling attention to the lines and shapes here. My one critique is that I think there is a bit too much negative space on the top and the bottom. I think it would draw the viewer in much more and have the main subjects be more of the main focus if it was a square crop.
