    I believe I would like the first one better without the toning. The high contrast and grainy feel work.

    The second one is awkwardly framed. There's no real flow from one element to another and the biker and ride are cut by the frame in a bad location. The jogger does not seem to add to the commuting theme.

    That first one looks almost like a wood block print. I like the feel of it.

    I think that I would like the tones of #2 on #1. The second is cropped to tight and I don't like seeing all of the bike. Let's see what no.1 looks like out of camera?

    Thanks for the comments..

    Greg, unfortunately I no longer have the "out of the camera" sampler any more, but I have this color version..
    To be honest I quit like the B&W one but is always great to hear other viewers opinion.

    I understand, I like this one best. It might be a bit over exposed but I am sure with a little PS work it will be another keeper. I like it.
