Here we are with another one of my bicycle portraits. Hey, this is the first time in weeks that I could manage to get the Image of the Day posted and blogged the very same day that it was shot. Feels good.
I shot this image in the morning in Lerchengasse on my way to work. I have cloned out a very distracting window in the background, made some selective adjustments to saturation, but otherwise … only kiddin’. Of course this image is heavily edited and that is as it has to be
It’s again the Nikon 50/1.8 at f1.8, post-processing was done in Photoshop.
The title is a line from one of the very greatest songs in Rock history. It’s the Rolling Stones with “Let it Bleed“, a song from their 1969 album of the same name.




So now I am left with those lyrics running through my head over and over–
“Well we all need…someone…we can LEAN on….”
Next time you should pick a more forgetable song.
Nice shot, Andreas, and a clever title.
Just wait till I find a reason to use “Salt of the Earth”
