2nd Gear, No Oil

A good and well lit entry, though I feel the post processing lets it down a little. I think this needs some noise reduction and I see some unrealistic halos around the edges of the broccoli.

I like it, but it appears that there's quite a bit of noise in the darker areas.

I would have preferred (+1) seeing a smile! ... especially since you are the VERY BEST at being "Cycle Centric", as far a I know you are considerd that by MANY 'Cycleist's', or more accurately everybody that you have ever worked your magic on their "M_Cycles"! You are also quite good at learnig the tools that you use... (I noticed that you had to use one of the lesser Nikons from my former collection of cameras...) would have taken much more to get this with the D1x! Great Job!

I can see that a lot of thought went into this shot, especially the lighting. Definitely not your standard portrait. My thought was: 'what do spokes smell like?'

This is kinda cool! Good use of a prop to show the real person. I like the unique way you've presented it. Nice job. 7
