    I'm sorry Marko but this pic doesn't do a lot for me. Trying to figure out what the subject it. If it is the runners, they are in a rather awkward position. My eye keeps going to the ZION graffiti. The bike riders in the foreground are that large they overshadow the runners. Hope this helps.

    No worries. I have mixed feelings too - The Zion phrase plus the misspelled french phrase (bridge of death, I believe) suggest this is a racial slur...and since it has the light, it was my intended focal point.
    That slur with the ordinary life around it, made me shoot this frame.

    The Zion phrase is certainly the focus of the photo and the arrangement of the runners and the people on the bike is carefully considered and works well. On that level you have achieved your aim.

    I didn't get the significance of the phrase and without your explanation the photo didn't make much sense to me. (maybe it is more demonstrative of my ignorance more than anything)
    I welcome all critique and comments on any of my photos
