Bicycle in many ways: 2/26, Chiang Mai, Thailand

That are two bikes (or one and a half). :)
As with other collections of yours single pictures as standing alone have small impact. They are just like taken away from the context of a longer story. That's my feelings.
This particular shot has quite limited range of tones, feels grey without much of a brilliance. Highlights are squashed, this is not pleasing too much. :neutral:
 
I agree with timor. Too many of your shots simply do not stand up well as single shots.
They need the context of the gallery to help deliver your vision. As a single shot, this really doesn't deliver.
The problem for me in critiquing your work is that I have seen so much of it that I subconsciously place it in a gallery.
In doing so, I give it more credit than it might deserve otherwise.

Then again, you aren't really posting here for critique. All you are looking for is page hits.
 
Notwithstanding the shot, I like Chiang Mai and would live there in a minute if I could.
Two medical schools, good universities, better weather than BKK, good bookstores and close to the real woods.

This picture is working well alone for me: I like the composition with the objects and the shadow around the bicycle. Sure, it's not the most seductive of the gallery but it's always like this in a serie. For the quite limited range of tones in this particular shot, I'm surprise...

:D I just expressed my opinion Pascal. As a bystander. Off course you have stronger emotional connection with your pictures as I do with my.

You're always welcome Timor!
 
This unfortunately falls into the pascal "bucket" for me. It's an "oh, it's one of THOSE types of images". Too predictable.

It's either "Lots of different lines with a couple partial objects" or "A person somehow juxtaposed against some large billboard or picture of another person... with some lines and perhaps some partial objects." This one is of the former type.

I think you're a very talented photographer. I would just like to see you try something else.

I don't think it was your intention, but maybe it's the greatest compliment I never received: 1000 thanks sleist :hail:

Every day, I try to find a Beethoven's piece who doesn't look Beethoven music... I didn't succeed yet, but who know... one day...

But as I'm not Beethoven, it should be easier for photography!
