There are many elements in this photo that make me happy. It’s monochromatic, except for the yellow bike. And that bike is the only object in a large frame, fulfilling my desire to create a minimalist photo. The tracks create strong line to guide your eye to and past the bike. In a subtle way the grate in the lower left balances the object in the photo. I feel the wet street is a bonus. I’m not sure the photo would be as interesting had it been a dry day. Hmmm. A wet street, light-rail tracks, a bike – is this a story? I think this photo tells a story. Does it for you? I’d love to hear what you think.
