I like these photos as much as the whole bicycles. The details are fabulous, and sometimes evocative. Did you notice that the last photo looks remarkably like a grasshopper?
Linda -- In many ways, it's easier photographing small details rather than the entire bike. The seat is a favorite of mine though I admit that I can't see a grasshopper—perhaps some other creature that escapes me now.
Loved your bike shots! Buster Keaton would look regal atop either of the two bikes with the large front wheel. He rode a bike something like them in The General. Beautiful technology.

Thanks, Carol. I'm trying to line up a few more bikes that are even more impressive.
