Too bad about the DQ. It's a fascinating shot. Looks like it jumped right out of a story. I love the imagery here. |

Quirky and wonderful. A somber moment, with a smile. |

That's near as perfect as a 'performance piece' photograph can be. No cheesy visual tricks, just a very good idea superbly expressed. Definitely hangs on my imaginary 2010 wall. Thank you. |

I like the shot, but it's too bad the bike is so modern looking. |

I really like the photo, especially the processing, but I do Not like the title. Before I saw the title, I was greatly interested in trying to think of a story that would explain the bike in the background, but seeing the title and seeing that the sadness is supposedly for the bike, "cheesifies" it (yes, I did just make that word up). I would have preferred a more vague title that allows the viewer to use some imagination. Still a great photo 7 |

My guess is the main subject is laying flowers at the site of the old bike that is not visible in the shot. However I can't get past the very first impression that hit me when I saw this image. The bike behind the gent takes on the aspect of circular wings - with the texture grain and the somber mood I get the feeling that there is something more to the story. This photo has such a surreal look and mood to it - most probably because I cannot see anything other than the man having bicycle wings. Instead of the flowers being laid at 'gravesite' my mind has taken a different path and sees that his pained expression is because of rejection: the lady did not accept his gift of flowers. |

Interesting post processing texture. I like the effect of the dark vignetting. The title changed the viewing experience for me. |
