Actually having three rings is perfect compositionally. A rule of thumb graphically is go for the threes.
Beautiful, serene, shot. Very well done.

Originally posted by tonyv: This is a very busy image, and I am not sure where I am meant to look. A single set of rings may have been compositionally better.

Man, you did a great job on leading the eye around this shot ... the fence to those beautiful rooftops right to the pretty mountain range. And then in the middle is that gorgeous meadow.

Ah Deb, you need to ride in Western Maryland. While on the Anchor House bike ride a few years ago a pickup slowed down and threw a bucket of nails at one of the female riders. Luckily she was a bit scratched but medically sound in general.
Some people can't remember that the road is for everyone.
I liked seeing your three bikes. I think the middle shot would have done very well in the bike challenge.

I like this pose, it's a fun one. I still think you were better off with the one you submitted. But this one brought a big smile to me. I have several shots (from long ago) of bikers asleep in a cemetary, still makes me smile this many years afterwards.

David, this was meant to be. Just yesterday I remembered that we hadn't heard anything from you and I poked around your profile. Glad to see you have a new car and a new camera, FUN!

Very very nice job staking out and waiting (I assume) for the perfect opportunity.

Interesting detail you've found, I do find the grease to be very unsettling--maybe because I'm a former long-ride biker.

It took quite a while to realize the snail is on a bike seat. The focus is on the snail and sort of takes away from the subject (bike), just my opinion of course. On the other hand I love the detail you've captured in the snail.
