Thanks for all the comments.
This picture was taken at the backyard of my appartment in Leiden, Holland, during the late March snowy days. I waited for several cyclists and this one is my favourite.
I put the picture in PaintShop Pro 8 to convert it into B/W and made a masking on the biker to gain focus of attention. Curve was altered on the B/W layer to get a depth sense of the background.
Sorry that I forgot to put this description.
I have looked at this several times, and while it is an exquisite photo in many ways, feel that just a bit more of the left side should be in the shot to give it better balance.
