a girl and her bike by summerfield

a girl and her bike

i couldn't catch up with her; i wanted to catch her on her bike but that one was too busy and this is the next best thing.

a sneak shot à la vivian maier. this didn't look good in black and white so gave it the 60's look in ribbet.
Oh , b and w would have killed it! I mean, look at her SHOES alone! And then the wall! I love the processing you chose. It is perfect! Fav for me! Wow!

I really like the way everything seems to be from the past, the bike and her clothing fit your editing.

I agree with MaryBeth, b&w wouldn't do it justice, the colours in this shot are great and those shoes really are great

This is an amazing capture - love the wall in the background - such detail. Great processing. Agree with above B&W would have killed it.

A great subject full of interest - green shoes, not red, her back and that wall! Was it really like this or did you do it with ribbet?
