OOPS, I totally misinterpreted this challenge. The two elements... I thought it meant two of the same elements, so I actually sought out two busted up bikes -- and found them. And then I intentionally muddied the pic to reflect the urban scene. Figured the processing had a chance of not going over well here at dpc, but apparently I missed the bigger stumbling block :)

Another attempt to get around using two of the objects in a creative way. I'm not buying it. The point of this challenge seems to be to flex your creative muscle by using two seemingly unlrelated objects to compose a great photo.
How did you challenge yourself creatively by taking a photo of two bicycles?
Ordinarily, I would say these two bikes have good picture possibilities. This rather straight-on, literal recording of the scene doesn't seem to have explored that potential very thouroughly, however. This photo doesn't look as if much thought went into composing it beyond 'see it, snap-it, move on'. This impression, combined with the photographer's apparent unwillingess to challenge him/herself by adhering to the spirit of the challenge, makes me feel like this photo doesn't merit much, even outside the challenge.
