First Impressions
Ah, good, I like this. This is what photography can capture so uniquely. I like the juxtaposition of the basketed bicycle parked under a tree and a passing cyclist with all the gear whizzing by.
Looks like there might even be a 'scooter thing' there too.
Photograph Information, Technicals & Composition Review
Composition - I like the composition but the cars in the rear do detract, maybe a slightly tighter crop at the top, not sure, as it seems to remove the needed space. Maybe the focal point slightly to the fore more may have blurred the background. Some slight blur in the bicycle, but you obviously didn't have much time with this. Perhaps tweaking in pp may have assisted - in b&w it might not be so noticeable (but you'd lose the motion element).
Comments, Score & Placement Review
Difficult, as this is an unconventional 'street photography' image, but given the main subject, I believe it squeezes in. 53/135 and 5.37 is not bad - quite a difficult shot. All your commenters like it.
Summary
Unique image that would likely lose impact in b&w. I see this is your first submission to DPC - nice start. It takes a good eye to see a scene like this and think quickly enough to take the opportunity to photograph it too. |
