 Yes, well, I haven't entered anything all month so I decided I'd best do something. No flash, just interesting natural light.

Yep, I can see where it would have been better not to have the shadow across the shoe. I did like the tire shadow on the ground, though. May have to try this one again just for fun. And I use the P&S one handed without really looking because I'm too freakin' old to crash. :-) (And I was riding rather slowly at the time.)

Ah, my first sub-5 of the year! May have another one later this week - stay tuned!

Can't believe the score. I gave youy a 7. The perspective, the tie-in to the title and the bike/shadows was exemplary. The voters are Philistines! LOL!!!

I especially like the idea that YOU are riding the bike! And I love the big round shadow.

Wheel shadow across the shoe detracts from image

I have to give you points for taking a picture while riding the road bike in clipless pedals! I'm too scared I'll break my camera to try that. :)

Interesting and unexpected perspective. I think a BW conversion with contrast adjustments would really give it some pop. I like the diagonal lines. :)

Nice idea. I hope you were safe taking it :-)

Definitely creative POV. Has a hint of motion. However, I think a slightly adjusted angle while riding and shooting the pic so that the shadow doesn't fall across the shoe would have made a good pic great. Just MHO.
