    That first one got my interest right away. I wonder what's in the bag.

    That's a dollar store bag. But there is a man who LIVES in Winnipeg.

    Interesting Don. All three have something to them that keeps me looking. I think the first is the strongest. There is alot of tension in that little square crop frame. The snow and the bundled up rider let us know that this is one cold day. The traffic zooming by him as he rides carrying bags on his handlebars. The tones are very good as well. Three is very unusual but i like the odd framing you went for with this. It's mysterious in an intriguing way.

    I agree with Gary and Frog. The first one is a nice piece of street photography.

    Don,

    That first one is a winner - love the crop as Gary pointed out it gives it some drama.

    I really like the pylons especially with sign vertical and the pylons leaning, gives the pylon a feeling of life by marching onward but at a drunken lean if that makes sense.

    The last one I find the weakest of the three, mainly because I need more around the stack to give it context.
