Excellent shot and choice of subject for this TOPE. I like how you composed it so the cross-tubes nearly converge at the front fork side and diverge toward the seat post side. Well done!

Very nice. The bicycle rental place ought to use your picture in their advertising.

Great shot! I like the narrow depth of field you used to direct more attention to the first bicycle.

Thanks for the nice comments. I was tempted to adjust the bikes to be more perfectly in line, but didn't want to freak out the rental girl. With my luck, I'd set off a domino effect as they all fell down! I was struck by the blue on the frames and the repetition.
