5 - I like this shot and think a photo of this into a time capsule for said year depicts the era well for future generations but I do wish you did not put circa there, not only for the Challenge description, but it speaks for itself in my opinion. Criticism; I am not sure on the choice of frame. I think if there were perhaps a little more fore space, it may have made this a better photograph in my opinion. I think the b/w works well and I like the look of the 'boarded background'. The detail in the carriage is good enough, especially seeing as it is black(?) so hard to pick up. Just a little more 'fore' and a little less 'top', in my opinion would make this better. And yes for me, without 'circa', likely a 7.
The tones are lovely in this photo....it's not always easy to render such a convincing black and white using digital.
Unfortunately, the reflective strips interrupt the "dream" of it being anything older than last year's model of an Amish buggy.
I can understand why you didn't want to crop out that appealing little door in the side of the barn, but that choice has left your main subject dead center sapping the energy out of the wide-angle view.
