photo is either too dark (trees) or too white (sky) and i want to see the hidden city. maybe doing it in b&w might have worked.

Because the rider is distant and dark, it is hard for the eye to immediately grasp his direction of travel, so the viewer must rely on the normal rules about flow of traffic for each side of the road (it took me a while to remember that different countries handle that differently). I wish that the image itself could have had some visual clues (other than the title) to help me anticipate the approaching impact of transition from rural to city.

Was there a fog earlier? It doesn't seem very crisp.

Contrast is a little low on this. It does lead the eye nicely into the scene.

Vroom! Needs to be cropped to increase interest!
