My usual travel kit is the Olympus 12-100 with my EM5, though I had also brought my Laowa 7.5mm with me this time, knowing this topic was up.

Detailed feedback, per your request:

The first thing that struck me was the unpleasant graininess. This may be the result of the incorrect settings you mentioned when you posted it on FB.
The car on the far right pulls my attention away from the main subject without adding anything relevant to the scene.
Midday sun created harsh shadows, which usually doesn't help. But we often don't have control over when and how we find out real world subjects.

Composition: I don't think this is taking much advantage of your wide lens (I just noticed this was taken with an 11mm lens, and not the fisheye you often use). I might have tried getting lower and closer to get a more dramatic view of a static subject. The fairing on this bike would probably look pretty cool closeup with the fisheye. That would also have an advantage of blurring the background. On the same thought, F8.0 is providing a deep depth of field, so a low F stop and getting closer would blur background distractions.

fisheye works well for this. so does the processing. it emphasizes the chaos that the artist might very well have intended.
