Hard to say why it doesn't do much for me, Mark.  I
think it's because after looking at the contact, and
then seeing the neg under a loupe, I expected it to be
sharper.  

But, since I went and got it printed I figured I'd
post it.  I still think it's okay, but only okay.  As
part of the "people and their bikes" series, it will
work, as a stand alone photo, I'm less sure.

Anyway, I have, of course, seen The Bicycle Thief, and
it's wonderful.  

cheers,
frank
