Think Bike.

On my walk today I was surprised how many yellow things I saw when I was actually looking for that colour ! I think I go round with my eyes shut half the time, either that or in a daydream !!
This cyclist has just paid 10pence to cross that bridge, it would have been free if he hadn't had his bike with him !

You have to enlarge it to see the yellow !! I tried to get nearer before he got to the bridge but he beat me !!!
A clever shot! Are you doing a colour challenge, Pat?

Love this . . yes, you can see the yellow. So the "bike" must pay! Poor bike. I do know what you mean about "yellow," Pat. I see it all over the place . .just never noticed before.

Love your yellow capture! I need to start looking around for some yellow myself...I'm sure once I start to look for and notice yellow things they'll jump out at me.

Cool shot Pat and love the bike.

I love your 10p toll - is there a human or a machine? I do worry about people cycling a long way and then being stuck for the sake of 10p mind you. Great letterbox crop - I know a man who'll approve of that!

@judithg Yes I do too LOL ! This is a toll bridge Judith across the river Wyre. It's 40p for a car , 10p a bike & 70p for tractor or wagon. There is a little house where the toll lady lives & you stop & out she pops with a ticket !

January 11th, 2012

Cool shot and smart use of selective color.

Great idea! Way to go Pat.

Gorgeous Pat - lovely selective colouring. You must tell me how to do that. How come he has to pay to cross the bridge on a bike???

very beautiful capture!

Beautiful and clever! Very nice Pat.

I done a similar thing once for a interior decorating assignment and yes you don't always see a colour unless that is what you focus on. Love the yellow raincoat? Imagining a grey day and a yellow raincoat perhaps?

10p! It's an outrage.
