Bicycles in Copenhagen, a photo from Kobenhavn, East

Photographer's Note

Taken while visiting Copenhagen back on 06. I find it amazing how everyone rides their bikes in this city, just like Amsterdam. Its very whimsical.

Yes this is definitely Denmark. You've really maximized your bikes in this photo, but it even looks like this in the depth of winter. Very nice composition and cropping. Well done!

Sincerely,
Kate

Hi, Magalie,

I was also a visitor to Denmark in 2006 (plus some other times).

What I like in your photo is the drama created by the contrasting sunlight on the bicyclists and the ponderous black cloud in the background.

Your choice to use a panaroma layout also really helps make the point about the very heavy use of bicycles in Copenhagen.

The only improvement I could suggest would be to try to find a viewpoint that didn't require so much of the street in the foreground. But that is a minor limitation of a great photo.

Regards,
- William
