I like the blown highlights in the background and the red, yellow, brown and black shades in the metal. I like the texture, too! dtallakson

Great job Alastair! Almost looks like some kind of cranking machine machine next to a blast furnace instead of an old Schwinn! - Kelly

Love the colours and glowing backdrop. Makes it look like it's about to be melted down ;)RichJ

Eye-catching stuff... ably supported by the high-key type of background. Super. Regards Nico

Thanks Lydia. Hi Bob. Lacking a seat and handlebars, it would have been difficult to ride it home :) It was also, inexplicably, chained to the fence that you can see behind it. Besides all that, I have five bikes (bicycles, that is, I'm much too wimpy for motorbikes) in my garage already! Alastair
