Back on the Bike!

Been absent from 365 for a few weeks, so trying to get back on the bike as they say!!!
This is my interpretation of a shot that I saw posted by the street photographer Valerie Jardin. Here is a link to the shot that inspired me... https://www.facebook.com/valeriejardinphotography/photos/a.501441120456.388192.464822635456/10157161231785457/?type=3&theater

My shot is rather more chaotic than hers. If you are interested in street photography I highly suggest that you follow her podcasts, they are always inspirational!

Cool b/w shot, light, shadows

[Richard Sayer]

Welcome back! I knew this was yours as soon as I saw it on my feed: partly it was the strong contrasty B&W but the real give-away was your usual attention to detail by shooting this where it says 'Look Bikes' on the road. Brilliant... a Fav for me.

This is such a well thought out and captured shot....wow!

[Bill Fenske]

love it. even better on black. superb comp. I like how you only show the lower part of the bikers andincluded all the shadows.

Brilliant! You have taken my breath way, so much is so good about this: the POV, the shadows pointing us to to the cyclists and beyond,, the gap between them, the lines of posts taking us to the distant people..the LOOK BIKES on the road... then there is the high contrast and the processing! Fab, Andie... take as many breaks as you need if they enable you to come back with shots like this. Fav x 1000!

Great composition. Totally suits B&W!

I like the homage to the original, and the way the figure's shadows become part of your story here.
