It's strange how the wheel rim has disappeared on the front wheel, yet the tyre remains. Awesome find for the challenge.

A really good effort to put together the winning combo of a wideangle landscape and swoopy clouds, but with a bicycle instead of a building. I like the view, though the details seem to lack some visual punch.

a little shy on color but the absence of everything around it makes it a good shot.

Looks a little under exposed but it's still a very nice photo.

I am really conflicted by this image. I like the simplicity and the potential message, but somehow at the same time it isn't grabbing me. The technical quality is good. My gut tells me it just needs a little something more. Some thoughts are perhaps a catchy title, a darker sky, parts laying around. To really love the image, I need just a tad more.

I like the colors and the front wheel reminds me of Salvador Dali clocks

The idea seems nice, but the pic does look a bit bare

I didn't really care for this in the thumbnail but the full size version works much better for me, this is one of my favorite of the rusted bikes, I like to broken spokes of the front wheel and how the bike is placed in the frame. The level of detail in the clouds, grass and background is also very good, excellent depth of field.

Great shot...great composition with the old bike in the empty field and the dark skies. I really like this shot.

I like the depth and feel of this photo as well as the framing of it matching the tires on the bike. I would like to see a little more saturation though to bring out the colours and make the bike stand out.

i like the composition. i think a colder temperature of color along a bigger contrast would have made it look better. 9
