Neat. Made me wonder how this was done. Would've been perfect if the handlebars weren't blurred. Probably hung the camera around your neck using the self-timer.

Excellent! I just voted on a similar composition. I like them both, but I do like the hands in your shot. I like the slight tilt, the natural color and the pathway. 10 from me.

Great Shot!!! It will make you dizzy!! It may just be me but I think you can tell that the bike is actually moving backwards, perhaps it is just my visual impression biased by what I think is the way the picture was taken. I am giving you a 10 though.

I love this! For me, the guy bending over makes it, it's like he's been waiting so long that he's fallen asleep and is resting his head on the guy in front of him! :) Top stuff!

Greetings from the Critique Club

Fit: This meets the challenge well but not perfectly. You hit the nail on the head with the guy bending down. He does imply motion which some may have slightly DNMC'd you for. Overall the image fits.

Composition: Nicely composed with two strong lines leading us to the front of the queue. First, the line of people, second the slight diagonal formed by the rooftops. Nice.

Technical: I like the almost silhouette feel to this and the light grey of the buildings. I don't know what you meant to do though. I do feel that the people need to have more or less detail.

Feel: Nicely shows the waiting of people in a queue. A great 1930's feel to the city behind the people. Just lacking something emotional to pull us in.

PM me if you have any queries.

yeah, I think the guy bending down works. I'd like to see it both ways so I can decide. ;)

I love this -- a book, a Starbuck's, and a cigarette. This is a satisfied man. Great, gritty colors, too.

That's magical! I love it. Where did you take it from? A helicopter? Or the mainland?

I love the texture of the boat's wake. The lack of a horizon makes it look like the island is floating in the sky.
