Offhand this appears to be more an illustration of grease than oil, but I'll let it fly. The freewheel is oily, after all. It's a good bike themed shot and I expect it to do well.

Nice, I like the greasy hands, would have wanted them even more greasy in fact.

An excellant candid portrait of a venerable character - the bike repair man. The author has obviously used flash, but it's not that noticable - the various highlights are not overdone, the setting is very natural, the pose is perfect capture of a moment in time. This would be a good subject for a photo journal piece on the life and times of a mechanic. Nicely done - one of my favorites so far.

Great environmental portrait. Looks like you even caught him mid-sentence.
