 An outtake from the "eyes closed" challenge that I keep going back to. This was taken in Fort Worth's T&P station. It is a frequent destination for the Night Riders, because of the tavern that operates there,

I had originally entered this outtake from "Urban landscapes" (not much urban in the image, which is why it wasn't entered) but the blurred bike shot just connects with me an I went with my gut. I'll probably get creamed for it, but you never know for sure around here.

Voted earlier coming back to comment.

Very clever turning this street picture of people and transportation into a study of lines and shapes. The two people are the leaning lines of the title while the bicycle wheels are the circle o's of the title. B&W was the better choice because the bold contrast between light and shadow can be accented/played up more. Color would not have been as effective in calling attention to the lines and shapes here. My one critique is that I think there is a bit too much negative space on the top and the bottom. I think it would draw the viewer in much more and have the main subjects be more of the main focus if it was a square crop.
