RobMember August 7, 2007 at 1:05 pm Nicely seen, captured and converted Dave. Can’t help feeling that it needs a slight rotation though… Rob. Jay KingParticipant August 7, 2007 at 2:10 pm I think the cyclist is lost in the image… he doesn’t stand out more than the benches or the trees. It’s a nice photo, but I don’t think it should be called “The cyclist”… as he doesn’t stand out and there’s a lot more to look at. As Rob said a bit of a rotation might work – be careful though… If you go too much he might fall off the bike ;) AliParticipant August 7, 2007 at 3:19 pm Lovely image Dave and i really like the tone and composition. That said, i think the lhs of the image is taking away from the cyclist, maybe tone it down a bit or alternatively crop. Well seen! RobertoMember August 7, 2007 at 10:04 pm I agree with the comments above. Try to make darker the area around the cyclist…. PeteTheBlokeMember August 8, 2007 at 9:18 am Nice one Jools. Could almost be in France – there’s something Gallic about the bloke on the bike.

I was wondering why it said ‘canal’ but had no water in it. I s’pose that’s French for cycle path is it?
