I like this quite a bit. The leading line of the wall draws me to the opening and the bike. The opening makes me curious as to what's through there. The spots of red brick and green leaves pop against the earthy brick tones.

The exposure looks good. The color is rich. The focus might be a little soft, but it's hard to tell at 800x555.

Hi Art

I like the composition, nothing like an open doorway to invite you in.

It looks like a little camera shake going on. Did you use a tripod? Depending on your focal length it could be tough to get a sharp image at that shutter speed.

Nice work

It's an interesting subject. I'd like to see the bike featured more prominently in the image, possibly facing toward me. Also, you could use a little more contrast in the image. I also agree with comment about blur.
