This is just awesome! Great subject for this challenge. It's loaded with originality. This is one of my two highest rated shots for this challenge. Excellent work.
bikes and snow, two of my favorite things. I think I want different curves or levels on this, though. Sorry I'm not technical enough to know what I want. 7
Lot of very subtle shades in this shot, but I think it needs more work to get them to come out and enhance the image. As it is, it tends to just look rather gray with nothing exciting going on. A different composition might help as well. My eye keep sgetting pulled up to the spokes towards the top but there's really nothing there to keep it looking. Nice idea in its simplicity. Good luck.
This is such a familiar - especially to one from new england like myself where winter can happen so suddenly. I love the texture you caught in the snow and the tight crop.
Hey! What a great eye to see this and capture the photo before this had a chance to "spoil". Maybe I won't hound the kids so much to put their bikes away in the future! :D Well done, and good luck in the challenge.
