This bike has been chained up here for weeks. I was getting strange looks from people passing by, with camera practically on the ground to get the angle I wanted. Wanted to try something different.

This is an excellent picture Tony and deserved a higher placing IMO.
I`ve been trying to work out how you managed to get 38 votes under 5 and can`t quite do it.
Maybe the faded out look of the background worked against you..although I think it helps to isolate the subject and should have been one of the plusses.
Good work.
I'm a sucker for textures, and i love the way this one plays off me retinas. bravo and nice.. although the framing is a bit odd, the bottom leaves are a bit fuzzy even though they take up a bit section of the eye pull
I like the idea, title, and composition but that bike just looks too darn new and fresh to have that 'forgotten' look. I know I'm being picky, but only because the right subject would have earned this an 8. As is, I'll score it a 6 because that bike is just too uninteresting. It also seems a little overexposed...
