Daniel,  cool image.  Were you using a polarizer for the shot?
Fons, very nice, love the depth in the image.  The distortion is well used.
Akira, now that is what I call pretty secure stowage.  How the heck to they get it up and down?  I like the framing of the image  :) .  What is it like in B&W ?

Tom, thanks for your comment and suggestion.  A stepladder should help.  :)

And this is a B&W version.  Hope you like it.

Daniel, did you place the bike there and did you fish it out :)
Fons, nicely crowded bike parking!
Akira, I am certain will land the bike sooner or later :)

Akira, yup, like the B&W.  Might have upped the contrast but I'm still working on B&W.  Looking at these, do the walls have texture?  They remind me of Hessian Wall Paper which was really 'In' during the 70's in London or the rough plaster that came in the 80's (but seems very even).
Cheers,
Tom

Thanks, Tom.  Yes, the wall has some coarse sandy texture which is commonly seen here in Japan.

D500, DC105 f2D AF at f5 and one of a different sort at the beach with Sony a7rII/Batis 25 f2 at f9.   I hate riding Push bikes in soft sand but great exercise on the hard, wet sand  :) .
