An old bicycle, adapted for the transport of a few fish, with the installation of a wooden box on the back, which the fisherman will take home with the bicycle, left leaning against a boat awaiting the return of its owner from the sea.
  • Sorry that this nomination didn't work for you Anna, I think the composition is very nice indeed. But I've tried bicycles in context here before, like this and this. Unfortunately, the men here prefer bikes to look like this for FPs. I've learned my lesson. --Cart (talk) 10:48, 10 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    A thousand thanks. I think you wrote it right. In fact, I withdraw it because I realized that it wasn't perceived in the right way. Technically I would have had to cut out a bit of the sky, and perhaps also penalizing the color of the boat, if it had been a color that had more contrast with the bicycle, it would have been better. The photo is romantic, while here they are looking for the wow effect, and therefore not suitable for FP. (⧼Anna Massini alias PROPOLI87⧽) (talk) 11:02, 10 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    @W.carter: Hmm... (this happens to be my only nomination featuring a bicycle)
    As a side note, I'd have supported were it not for the noisy water. --SHB2000 (talk) 11:26, 10 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
There are always exceptions on all sides, and I thank you for being one of them. This site would be better if more users were more open to different views of the world. --Cart (talk) 11:36, 10 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
If you like, you can support this photo in the photo of the month competition in the "Bicycles" theme where I nominated it. (⧼Anna Massini alias PROPOLI87⧽) (talk) 13:10, 10 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
