Going...

He'd probably be annoyed if he knew the girls were ignoring him

Girls are teasing him or what!!He seems to be going out of the frame too! Great street shot.Well composed & nice B&W as usual.

My best regards.

very interesting composition...without the girls in the background the picture would be unbalanced...nice work...regards....David

If I had to give a lecture about composition I would choose this one to explain the rule of third and the working of diagonals in a picture. It is a surprising image. All the components, the cyclist, the girls, the background and the pavement, work harmoniously together to create a very good image. It is always the miracle of seeing and acting at the right moment. You succeeded very well

Congrats,

Herman

All fits perfectly - compliments Ruud

You have so many things going on here; everything in the right place and a perfect bg etc. and there all done well. 

This composition is incredible.  Well done.

Mooie plaat Ruud, leuke compositie. Toch ben ik erg benieuwd naar de kleurenversie.

I agree with Herman. This is just a delightful study in people. Wonderful. wonderful.

Just great! Best regards, Linh Dinh

Attractive looking shot Ruud...great backdrop....regards

Good timing, excellent composition and nice B/W tones as usual.

There's a lot going on, and that's what I like about it.  The B+W version causes my eyes to keep moving.  Great composition.   Aloha.

Great composition, and I do like the B&W version better.

Nice Shot Ruud.

Love it, lots going one and yes the eyes are moving :)

Ruud,

Smaken verschillen, ook gezien de reacties, maar ik was altijd gefascineerd door je kleurenplaten en herkenbare, vaak typisch Hollands(ch)e taferelen... Doe weer eens wat meer kleur, alsjeblieft!

Groeten,

Menno

The original is wonderful also. Congrats.

I love both versions.  My sister has a recumbent bike like this

many thanks for your visit and nice comment!

With best regards,

Ruud.

My favourite of this set, great work, cannot decide on the colour or B&W 7/7 from me for both.
