March 28 2005:
The Long Walk Home

Caught this cyclist whilst walking across Chertsey Bridge. We are enjoying the later evening sun now, but today it was popping in and out behind those late afternoon milky clouds.

I also saw a heron near here, but of course it just flew away whenever I got remotely close.

Photoshop:
Cropped and Resized
Some cloning out of the bridge on the extreme left.

Hovis... do you remember that advert? Fantastic Ray. Voted.

Very nice composition. I really like the low perspective. I have walked my bike on a several occasions and it's usually not a good sign. I think this adds an emotional element to the image. The desaturation on this works perfectly.

Ray, it's got a real 'end of the working day' feel to it. Congratulations on a super shot.

Wonderful silhouette.

Ray - such a cool shot my friend! Love the color. Just him and his bike - makes you wonder what's he thinking about rolling along!

jude28-Mar-2005 18:18
such a feeling of aloneness.. not lonliness.. but of being alone with one's thoughts. Really nicely done
