I took this on the way back from shooting some night photography down by the river, I had turned off my camera and put the lens cap back on, but something about this scene made me kneel down in the snow bank and snap it.

It's unlike my usual minimalist photographs, and when I saw the fine art challenge I immediately thought about this shot. It's messy and uncontrolled, but the composition works somehow.

I think this image is prolly the one that most fits the description of the challenge. It's a wonderful image all on its own, but it truly belongs in a place of honor in this body of work.....10

The colors are psychedelic and I'm not sure it's to any good effect. What I like is the composition -- all the curved lines.

Your post work is a bit much for my taste. I have difficulty considering this "fine art"; it's true that it's an unusual picture of an object not often seen from an angle not expected, but those elements combined aren't enough. I would rather have known something about the photographer, and what he/she felt about the image presented. I can't tell anything about that, from this.

This has some really nice colors and good light but for me and my thinking of fine art, it doesn't seem to fit. Good luck though.

There's a lot I like about the feel of this shot but handlebars rank pretty low as a point of interest for me.

I certainly have a few bike pics on my walls already, but somehow this does not strike me as something I would want to add to the collection. Interesting and good perspective, however.

you almost have a perfect set up...but for me the garbage and the box in the background take away from the really cool graffiti on the walls and stairway...nice composition
