Bit of a tough call to decide between two great shots like this! But as I study them, I am drawn more to the cyclist. Can’t quite figure out why, but perhaps because there’s a lot of information there, like the shopping bag in his basket, and he has some space in the frame to travel into, the sensation of movement, and somehow he conveys an air of concentration or maybe determination to get home quickly?
