Image looks weird. I don't like the processing or whatever it is.

I like the glowing effect, just doesn't really look realistic - and too dark around the edges.

Nice view, but it seems a little vaugue on details showing. Looks like this may have been an exercise in painting with a flashlight and long exposure, which would explain that appearance and the bright swish above the bars.

Fantastic lighting. my only complaint is that the front tire is cut off just a little on the bottom, but otherwise nice angle and compisition.

Interesting idea, the swirl of light above the handle bars distracts a little

I love the lighting and softness of this photo. Almost looks 3d rendered. Excellent planning and composition definitely went into this.
