Would this be considered "foofy" with all the pedals? I really like this one Dr. Quinn. Nice shot and very informative. I think that's a good point about this site. We learn other things going on in the world without some newsperson telling us. Good angle. Now if a flower salesman were to use this he would: use "Pedal Power to peddle his petals." I think that's right.

Why do the pictures come out square when the lens is round?? Picture Purrrfect .
I love the diagonal of the bikes and the lighting in this shot. You are very creative with this one, Adriana. Good idea, and it is a very good picture.

Imagine you are there
The mark of a true artist, to see the potential of the everyday things that others walk past without even seeing. Great job!

"WOW! What a ride!"'
In Paris, like most European cities...the use of bicycles and public transportation is highly advised and promoted, due to the high price of petrol, and the limited amount of road space available for higher volumes of traffic...Road travel for most, is something that is done mainly for job-related functions, on weekends, or when one is on Holiday...Great image here...Thanks for sharing!

When you're through with life and all hope is lost.
Hold out your hand 'cos friends will be friends - right till the end.
Don't know whether there is a difference in bicycles for men and women in France or not. If so, it seems to be that this 'rental programma' is only meant for women Adriana and that would really a pity as I suppose that mostly men have to improve their condition, lol. Very interesting and nice image!

Cornelius was here! (lol) Click HERE to see his work!
Nice idea Adriana! The angle and shapes created by the line of bikes is visually pleasing. I wonder if they would have a domino effect! :) ;)

Is an excellent idea, here in a city called Aveiro they have this kind of bicycles too.
Very good shot.

Good invention, and i see that can handle a lot of abuse to ! They look to be made to last at least 100 years ! Thanks for the posting Adriana.

I like the angle you have taken this from, and I am very tempted to take a ride. Nice shot x
