Misc My morning commute.

Hi Everyone.
I am thinking of entering this in a photo contest with a theme of " outdoor activity ".
Now, I like this photo a lot but I have learned that my opinion doesn't always mean that much. I would be interested to know what anyone else thinks of the picture.
Thanks

I like the photo...the shadows and reflections give the proper feel of reality to it. Color is very good, and I like the composition. The only problem for me is the focus.....I sort of keep looking for the focus point, and don't find it readily. If it was on the guy in green with the rest a little blurred I might like it better? Still, I think I would enter it.
Regards!

Definitely looks out of focus or blurry (at 1/125? I dunno). The reflective jackets of the bikers are also very distracting, and you can't see their faces. I wouldn't expect too much out of the contest...

You might try cropping a little off the top and see if you prefer that.
