Look Ma - no hands!

Nice shot, but no hands on what? You would have us believe that you weren't holding the handle bars and you weren't holding the camera. It will be interesting to see how you pulled this one off. I like the motion blur and the orientation of the photo. This gives the image a sense of speed, the feeling of a slight loss of control, and a feeling of dizziness.

I'm sure that you are getting a lot of comments admonishing you for the small image size. To score your best, it is important to submit the photo at the maximum size allowable. I zoomed in 200% to get the image to a comparable size to the rest of the field. I didn't see where the focus is here (maybe because of the zoom though) which also takes it down a little. On the good side, I like your composition, shooting from the rear of the bike with the front tire turned for a profile view as a backdrop to the rest of the bike.

Wow, regarding the extreme colors. I'm sorry if I'm off base here, but it seems that something was boosted a little too much here, maybe the contrast or saturation. The clothes grabs my attention immediately and holds it a little too long for the 'Bicycles' challenge. But it is good to see an attempt at something different.

Good focus with the motion blur background. His coat tails flying also lends to the sense of speed here. He definitely looks like he is enjoying himself.

Old school card in the spokes

Nice focus and DOF. I would have expected to see a good 'ol wooden clothespin fastening the card to the bike though. How is this one attached?

I love the curving lines of the motion blur on the ground. I wonder how you achieved this, either the turning the bike, fisheye lens, or that's just the lines on the gound??? Whatever it is, this is a great shot.

Great shot across the street there. I was sitting with my back to them and I didn't see them until they were right next to us. I remember you saying that you were going to put them in the challenge sort of as a tribute to their accomplishment, whether the entry would do well or not. Now that I see what you entered, I expect that it will do well. I like the angle of their leaning, the matching colorful outfits, and the fact that she is looking right down the barrel of your lens with a determined look on her face. Great job!

Nice job making the bike fade in from the dark background. The red and silver look good against the black.
