Fantastic composition. Everything is balanced perfectly in the frame. The small red flag on the letter box brings your eye back to the focus point of the image but the yellow school bus really pops. Together with the beautiful; landscape behind it works perfectly.. I'm really pleased you shot this in portrait and not landscape as it makes it a much stronger composition.
Interesting image.
Great timing for the cyclists with the postbox perfectly lined up between them.
You have chosen the right shutter speed - any slower and the blur would be too much.
The red clothing really makes the riders stand out and grabbed my attention.
The background itself is a little distracting with the wall and buildings but otherwise and interesting and different image for this competition.

**This contest is open to photographers ranked 1000+ in this week’s <a href="https://www.photocrowd.com/photographer-community/">Leaderboard</a>.** The thrill of posting a letter to a friend, sending it on a long journey, maybe to a foreign land, and all made possible with a simple stamp and a walk to your local post box. Nowadays post boxes and mailboxes are more associated with getting Amazon deliveries, bills and junk mail, or sending something back because it doesn’t quite fit, but they are still very much part of our lives, and range from the plain and functional, to the ornate and nostalgic.
