Superb submission. I love the three darker (orange) petals mixed in with the yellow. If you didn't stop all the way down, try it to get the upper green leaf sharper. Black background is great.

This is one of the strongest street portraits I;ve seen on the site. You really capture the focus and intensity of the rider in this shot. The goggles and helmet really add to it by removing almost all recognizable elements to the face but the eyes. I'd try using a polarizer to cut the small amount of glare present. Without fail, this is my top portrait for this challenge. 9

I don't know how this has been done to bring the viewer right to the eyes (with all the stuff around them, you'd think it'd be distracting) - but I guess it all serves instead to frame those eyes. Wonderful expression and a very nice photo of this guy. Good title to match it.

Good picture of helmet and shoulder pads. I find the background unsettlingly out of focus as if intentionally blurred and it would be interesting to find some way to illumiinate the face.
