I need help with choosing one of these photos. I am suppose to enter one photo into a street walk competition and I have narrowed down from my photos from that day three. I would love any help in deciding from others which of these three is the best photo. They were shot in Beijing China.

1. French Horn: I like this photo but I was just not sure if it was the best choice.

2. Old Bike: I love this shot but wish I could have been been able to get more of the bike in but I couldn't

3. Old Lady: This was one of the people I met on the walk she was kind enough to let me take her picture. My only hesitation is painting her in a bad light.

I know that this is ultimately my decision and I need to follow what I think is best but I would love to hear what other photographers think about this.

So thanks in advance

The French horn. But check the rules of the competition to see whether there are any hints about what the judges will look for.

I would prefer #2, why? In MHO, the main point is just that it does not depict the whole subject. It is pefect for street photography, the colors so well harmonize with the bicycle´s age.
