Yes, the oval base fits in with the drum circles and the vertical part somewhat parallels the steel wire bracing, so it's somewhat of a Where's Waldo! LOL! ~ Lonnit

Wow, it took me several times looking at this before I saw the excercise bicycle. -- Victor

How poetic! That put a big smile on my face. :D There was something very satisfying about making this image. I muted down the colors, which were brighter, because these blues and greys were so soft and soothing and blended nicely with the color of the surrounding concrete. It gave a softness to such hard, cold materials. I liked that bike there too; it seemed such an odd element to be there. Thanks for the comments. :) ~ Lonnit

Well, this is really interesting. Like the empty shells of the nuts from the industry tree... once full with 'needful things' and now empty and forgotten. The color works toward a very different mood... calm, feels like the empty drums are satisfied on their status-quo. Another thing is that stationary bike: even on its relatively small size it shatters the order and adds for a very intriguing element... Cheers!!

Thanks. I muted the colors down a bit b/c I liked the softness of them. ~ Lonnit

I like this the best of your three, Lonnit. The soft colours, the interesting shapes. Very well seen and photographed.
