The very strong shadows make this really interesting. I like the simple white border it works very well. How nice to see some sunshine!

I really like those shadows created on the ground and the of course the person and dog. I think a bit more detail in the deep shadows would make it even more interesting.

Comment by Ken:
The pink is certainly nice, but this one seems to have such a different mood to it. The B&W doesn't look quite as cheerful as the color.

This is really cool, Deb. I like how your subject stands out against the lighter road. What makes this photo for me is how you chose to take the picture from behind, where typically it would be with him coming towards you. The fact that he's alone on a bike in a street full of cars just seems a bit sad to me.

I'm becoming quite the fan of converting to B&W in RAW also. The only time I won't do it is when I'm doing color or not sure if I want color or B&W.

The shadows of the branches on the ground really make this shot stand out. This is a well put together shot.

I like the softness you got here. The non-standard composition - lordy, you even have them going right to left! - really makes this a compelling image to look at. One of my 9s.
