Nice idea but I think you might need some more practice. The shot's great but the halo around the bike doesn't do it for me.

Hello Tom,
Thanks for your nice comment. Could you please suggest me what improvement I should do with that photo. I am just started to learn to use Photoshop. I am curious to learn new Photoshop techniques.:D

Well I'm no pro in photoshop myself so I'm affraid I won't be much help in that area. But the glow just looks pasted on, maybe if it were a bit less, in a slightly more transparent colour?

I'm sure some photoshop experts will show up with more helpful tips or maybe you should post this question in the 'Raw, postprocessing and printing' section.

Hi Tom,
Thanks for your suggestion. At first I thought to give white color glow around the bike. Then I made two pictures, one with white glow and another with blue. I decided blue color is more attractive than the white.
I agree with you that the height of the glow is too much.

I just saw your photos in SmugMug and wrote some comments. I like your street photography!:D

Nice image. Title should reflect, "Magic Trike."
