Self Portrait

Engaging Picture

I think I'm just excited for fall, but this image was really engaging for me. I love the bright red color and even the splash of yellow. It is a very warm image. I like the composition. The sidewalk takes my eye to the biker. Plus, his white shirt contrasts with the red, so it really pops. I like how small the biker is and how the main focus really is the scenery and the red leaves. Also, this picture follows the Rule of Thirds with the biker and the center of the sidewalk on the left vertical axis.
