 I found this bike leaning against a barn at my sisters farm. I thought it was pretty cool, and would make a great subject for a photo. I wanted to include more of the bike, but it took away from the "circle" of the wheel.

The setup is too plain, the shadows too harsh, the single green weed (?) on the right is distracting, as is the change in background from the dirt to wood.

The background really adds interest to this shot. I love the wood and the tire just slightly sunken into the stoney sand. The thumbnail didn't interest me much but the detail did!

I like the cropping work you've done here, but it does not save the rim from being overexposed by at least 2/3 of a stop. The harshness of midday sun can sometimes work to your advantage, but I wonder if some softer, overcast lighting would have been better. Your choice of background and is superb and begins to tell us a story about the bike and it's roots. Perhaps including the legs of a young boy dressed in 50s and conversion to black and white would bring out the rustic feeling of the image. Good effort.

Other than the overexposure on the bottom rim, I like this picture.
