Nice shot. I love the angle you've chosen to shoot this at, and the composition used. IMHO this shot would have had a much greater visual impact with a shallow DOF. It would have cleaned up the scene more and really emphasized the subject and color. Just my opinion, nice shot nonetheless

LOL... Nice shot, very funny. Like the idea. Maybe the sky is a bit overexposed, without details IMO.

Love the subject, reminds me of my dad who has a john deer riding mower, has many fun stories about driving it a 1/4 mile to gas it up. Great use of color and I didnt know they made tirechains for john deers :)
