Solarization Photography

This photo was taken by Emmanuel Radnitsky.  This photo intrigues me because it was taken in 1930.  I've never thought about photography's history much before this.  For such a simple photo, I really like the contrast the solarization effect gives the picture.  What's interesting is that "Man Ray" discovered solarization on accident, and ended up controlling it to create the look he desired.
This photo of my sisters bike, turned out very interesting solarized.  I like the look of the metal on the bike, as well as the look of the railing.  To improve this picture, I would've maybe placed the bike in a less distracting area.  If I were to give myself a grade, I'd give myself a 93.
