First posting, so apologies if I mess it up! Taken today in a dreary Cotswold village in the UK (dreary coz of the weather!) Trying out my new toy! I think I need to come back here & shoot it on a tripod at a slower speed than 400.

Very nice, danman. And great to have you here!

I like it very much. Everything in the image draws your atention to the bike and rider while at the same time everything is interesting. B&W works very very well for this image. Good work and look forward to seeing more.

Thank you
Thanks for your replies and kind words. What a very nice bunch of people!

I'm working nights over this weekend, but I'm desperate to take some more pic's with the 20d, so I'll grab a couple of hrs in Oxford before bed!

Thanks again.

Like it Danny, love the curled frame in front of the doors with the colums.
Great shot... I think there is more pictures in this passage.
Show us more if you can. Love the color palette you used here.

Hard to detect the dreariness...or maybe dreary is an everday occurance here in Western Pennylvania...I like the picture.

I think this is the better of the two shots also. Nice balancing of the subject, the doorway, and the curves and straight lines of the backgrounds.
