Shot during a photo shoot of a friend of mine's child. This image struck a chord with me. It's just my style...plain, simple, and not over thought. I don't think it's strong enough to finish well in a FS but it's my favorite image from March so it's in. Predict bottom 15%.

I love the way the subject sits hapahazardly in the frame -- clipped pedal and all -- not unlike its rider might leave it in the driveway. The processing bugs me a bit, but not enough to keep this from being a top pick of mine. An eight for you.
I am participating in the "Why a '5' not a '6'?" commenting activity (see recent forum thread). Viewers are asked to leave a comment with some of their votes of '5' letting the photographer know why, for them, it fell short of a vote of '6'. If you have found this comment useful, you may wish to offer some of your own to those images where you vote 5.
I love the colours and the processing here but the clipped pedal bothered me too much to overlook. Back to bump. I was too mean.
