This comment is for the The Portfolio: Pro Invitation group:

This is a well-exposed shot. The highlight on the bike is nice. The star-burst effect on the distant light is also pleasing. However,
I'm sorry that I don't "get" this shot. I'm not sure what am I supposed to look at. The bike or the neon lights or all the lines competing for attention? There are too much going in this photo. The title suggests the main subject is the bike, but I'm not sure. Some of your shots in your photostream are wonderful. I just don't quite get this one. I'm sorry.

Technical: 5 There really isn't much techincality in this photo. I would have liked to have seen a spot meter on the lights, that would have resulted in a less cluterd background

Composition: 6 I do like the composition, if only there only wasn't that stree in the background with the buildings

Eye Appeal: 5 My eyes are very lost on what I should be looking at.

Commercial Viability: 3 just not a commercially viable photo.

I see alot of things I like in your image, it evokes a very warm atmosphere, it asks questions and tells a story. However, under the below criteria I find it hard to judge it highly. Compositionally, I THINK it should be great (I'm following the lines through the image) but honestly it doesn't sit very well with me - I think that I find the perspective on the building a little wonky.

Technical: 6, Composition: 5, Eye Appeal: 7, Commercial Viability: 2

Thanks everyone for your thorough comments. I myself don't know what I like about this picture. This is actually a boat house on a hilly street in Amsterdam. That's a tram passing by in the background and between everything is water( which of course can't be seen.) I guess what I liked were the lights on the house and the shimmer on the bike.
I could probably make something out of this in PS. The title is a lazy title. I should change it. I'll put here some of the others I took of the same subject but differents spots. They are pretty much the same, with subtle differences.
Thanks everyone.
Cheers!!
