This was one of my favourites in this challenge. I had picked it for top three at least!
Excellent picture, good composition.
Congrats on your top ten finish...you must be proud!
(I'd hang this one on my wall!)

Thanks for all the comments, I never had a chance to reshoot in good light (strong morning sun coming in through break in clouds) and basic editing wouldn't allow for cloning out the car.

Congratulations on a top 10. I like the balance in this one. Nice find!

Well Done David.
I was personally hoping to see this in the top 3, and had the reflection not been in the windows, it may just have.
Congrats on a top 10 finish!

Great colors and an engaging composition. That line of bikes to the right, and above the bright red letters, all against a sky blue building. Nice that the sunlight is just catching the front ends of the bikes. Simple, good. 8

Great colors and very good composition. My only critique is the reflection of the white car showing in the window, kinda distracts a little. But overall, a cool concept.

This is really cool...would love to see more of the turquoise pop out at me. Maybe a slight boost in sats or a curve adjustment? Anyway, well-composed image. :o)

Good shot. Love the colours.

I love this photo. It's very simple, and I like how you have three points to view in this picture: "Mike's Bikes," four windows surrounded by a turquoise, and the colorful wave of bikes. I'd say this picture is at least in the top 20. My only complaint is the reflection of the car in the windows. Remove that and this photo would be higher.

Great composition, or, great eye if you just happened across this. Colors are great.

Yikes - I like Mike Bike's a lot. A great find and very well shot. The only small critique point is the reflection of the white car should not be there. Composition and exposure could not be better. Top contender.

Stunning composition. - GOOD EYE!
Colors & subject really draw the eye ito this shot.
One small suggestion: If you can ever re-shoot this, get it when there isn't a car's reflection in the window. I disregarded it completely in this challenge.
A wel deserved ((9)), and one of my favorites in this challenge!

Very nice graphic image. The colors are great and the group of yellow bikes really works well with the red words above. Well seen and composed.
