Specialized Bicycle in Sunset

I’ll start off with a self critique of the areas I thought need work. Please feel free to chime in.

- Sun from the sunset is too hot near the handlebar.
- Flash color is not balanced with the warmth of the sunset which takes away from the mood.
- Background is not very interesting and the wooden rail takes away focus from the subject.
- Angle is awkward and there are no dominant curves.

This photo definitely needs to be re-shot IMO.

The Kitchen Faucet

Little was done [post processing] to this shot, which was taken with my old A85. What made this picture was the black background and nicely contrasting faucet/droplets. The setup was quite elaborate for a Point and Shoot. I setup two flashes (optical slave triggered), left and right of the faucet and turned the rooms light off before pressing the shutter.
