    The final parking place for these wheels... Something a bit different for me!

    This bunch of bikes caught my eye at a family gathering yesterday and I knew exactly what I wanted to do with the image. They were sitting at the top of a little hill so I could get a low angle without hurting my knees, which is always a concern! Processed, of course, with Topaz - Detail, Clean, and Adjust in that order.

    Edit: this image really got hammered by compression, as I had to go down to 18 quality to get it uploaded. Here is a much better version of it - CLICK . Click once on the image to go to the slide show view. Thanks!

    Kerry, nicely seen, composed and processed! Wonderful detail and I love the vibrance of colors, it really looks like an HDR image. The railroad ties provide a nice FG anchor and leading lines, and the colors & texture in the FG and BG with fence really compliment the bikes. Well done!

    Wonderful angle of view! Weren't you smart not to have to get down on your knees. Good eye to spot these carefully arranged bikes. Your work in Topaz is excellent.

    Kerry. Very nicely composed with the FG railroad ties -it gives it a neat perspective. I like the processing and the image held up well to the compression.

    Nice image and application, Kerry.

    Would love to climb on one and go, but my knees won't let me anymore either! Anyone want a Schwin mountain bike?? Was fun while it lasted!
