visually appealling image this. not sure about its zenness in its truest sense, but as art it's very lovely. i might have been tempted to go over the set and handle bars with the burn tool (look a bit washed out grey) and maybe shift it along to the left a bit composition wise, but those things aside, it's very nice. i love the large expanse of wall. 7.
Now this is Zen without stones, smoke, water or garden. I love the simplicity of this. The shadows and texture of wall adds to drama. Good choice of keeping the subject small compared to background. I feel a little left or right (basically not in the middle) placement of cycle would have been even better. Hope this does well for you.9.
Excellent. I like the choice of the vertical negative space. Works well with this composition. I also like the time of day you chose since it allows the bike's shadow to add interest to the image. While I don't necessarily feel anything zen when I look at the image, I do think it meets some of the aspects mentioned in the challenge description. It is quiet, it is still and it is simple. I do wish the focus was just a tad sharper on the entire bike (the front portion looks great), though that could just be because of the bit of shadow on the back wheel. Anyway. I gave a 6
