black and white

Not sharp enough or enough contrast to suit me. It needs true blacks and true whites, I think.

Colorful bikes...

Perhaps more Depth of Field on this would add to this photo. As it is, the only thing that's in focus is the bit of the purple bike... and there's not enough of it in the frame to hold my interest long enough to examine the rest (unless I'm giving a critique. *smile* ) The scene is a good one. Good find.

I love the smile... but I really need to see the eyes. Perhaps a bit more of the bike, too... to make sure the viewer understands what's going on.

OMFG!

Does OMFG really mean what I think it means?! Surely no one would actually say that.

Congrats on your big win.

This is really fabulous. I gave it a ten... Congrats on your top ten finish. Well deserved. Actually, a bit low, I think. Fantasticly creative!

I at least ought to get some credit for admitting my score given and listing reasons why. *smile*

I get many low scores and have no clue why, since most don't take the time to leave their critique.

My opinion about this image is still true... and I'm sorry if my honest critique offends you... truly, I am.

I am guilty of being prejudiced... like most here... but I don't vote images down just because they don't appeal to me. I hate snakes, but give an honest opinion of the photographic talent shown when I encounter a snake photo.

littlegett has some images that appeal to me, but this is not one of them.
