I uploaded this in colour in 2009
I rarely if ever converted to mono in those days
Thought it would make a good one for Shadow Saturday

Many thanks to Andy for his User Award for In the sink yesterday

Bright and sunny here today - hope you all have a good weekend SmileSmile

Bicycles provide fascinating and detailed shadows - this is an excellent example. Love the oval rear wheel Smile

Clever composition, low pov and sideways angle allow the image to occupy the frame fully.
B&W allows us to see that more easily I think, it allows lines and structures to dominate.

You can tell how out of touch I am - I didn't know of shadow Saturdays... This sells the concept brilliantly Helen.

I always think bike shadows look great, and with this shadow against the brick wall, it's even greaterTongue.

I like this because the shadows shows elements of the bike we otherwise wouldn't see...like the shock absorber under the cross-bar.
Good idea to do this as b&w...it works so well, Helen.

You certainly have an eye for a good looking shadow Helen. A very good image that suits the mono processing.
