Very evocative!

Exceptional composition with the lights on the left leading the eye from the cyclist in the foreground to one in the distance shrouded in mist.

The choice and careful use of B&W complements the subject, time and weather conditions wonderfully.

I kneel before thee, O Master

Another wonderful image, Nezih. Beautifully framed with lovely receding tones. It's the figures which complete your shots, though.
Best wishes,

Andrew

Thank you all, Pro Masters and Eddie! You're so generous and kind. I'd like to quote a Latin proverb:
“It is the greatest possible praise to be praised by men who are themselves deserving of praise"

I can hear the quietness, and feel the chill of the mist - must be a pretty good shot then

A lovely atmospheric shot Nezih. The nearest cyclist is a compositional clincher but the hazy rider in the distance adds intrigue.

Nice composition and conversion. I like the icely framed hazy tree in the centre and the two cyclist figure. I also like the square crop. Well taken shot, my friend.

That's a great picture ,Nezih. I saw it in the gallery and thought "It looks like one of Nezih's but you don't see many cyclists in Konya."
The caption explains it.

Best wishes,
