The Environment Agency are in the process of repairing some of the defences around the River Exe, which means they've lowered the water level significantly over the past 2 weeks, and while it's low, they seem to be removing some of the junk from it! I found this yesterday while walking along the river during my lunch break!
Due to the fact that I'll be working on site in Scotland for the forseeable future, I probably won't be able to respond to comments straight away, but will try my best, and will definitely get back to you eventually!
As always, feedback and constructive criticism will be greatly appreciated!

@{H} creatives: I've been asked that before, It's just a case of both of us having surnames beginning with a B I guess (I'm a Brock!)
Poor bike. :( And nice shot!
Happy Valentine's Day!

@pLusOne: Thanks pLusOne, same to you!
Who would just throw a bike in a river? I am jealous of the green grass...hurry up spring! The focus looks like it is on the grass and misssed the bike a bit, but I love the composition!

@Tracey: Some of the stuff you can see in the depths is strange, bikes trollies etc! I did notice the focus point myself, but only after I had uploaded it to my computer!
Interesting effect that the waves have on the bike and the bank. If I fix my eyes on the bike, or the grass, it seems like the water is moving!

@Steven: Didn't even notice that myself Steven!
I like the POV, it looks like it could be slipping back in.

@Steven: It's actually some distance from the edge, it just doesn't look like it!
I like the way it looks like it's trying to claw it's way up the bank, It certainly is amazing what people throw in rivers. Happy Valentines day.

@Dimitrios: Thanks Dimitrios
This is great shot, the contrast between the water and grass is marvelous. Perhaps the bike could be a bit more off center, closer to the left.
