just how did you get it to look so muted?
In Germany they have electric bikes with little motors. The government gives you low cost or no interest loans (forget which) to buy one, and larger cities have charging stations. If you qualify you can charge your bike for free.
I wonder, are all their bikes green?
not having a good post processing program... this is the best I could do for green
....now I'm headed over to the Smithsonian to see the Annie Leibovitz exhibit!!
