This was done well.
Organized chaos.

I'm not one to do the whole "If there aren't any mistakes find one" thing. No need to change anything here.

agreed. it's overwhelming, but in a good way that gets your brain churning. it works fantastically well in black and white, and the tonality is excellent.

great shot!

Definitely a shot made for b&w. In color it would be too busy.

I think I like the colored one better. I assumed the color one would be alive with color and the effect would be overwhelming. So much for making assumptions before looking at the shot!

I have to agree that I thought the colour one would be too much, but infact I prefer it. The muted colours actual make the picture all the more interesting. Plus in the b/w (though I love high contrast b/w) I find all the handlebars a bit bright. That's not the case with the colour shot though

Nicely captured.
