The tractor looks really good. I do find the border to be a distraction though. :) Makes me want to farm, ok, maybe not, but it is a very nice image.

The John Deere folks would probably love to have a copy of this - very vibrant - a nice "portrait" of the machine.

Very strong Halo-ing around the tyres detract from this shot

I think the border is a bit too garish here, it distracts a lot. Also not sure how much the HDR adds to the shot.

Not normally a fan of farm implements but I like the composition of this one. Nicely fills the fram with the subject. Colors are vibrant. You've pushed HDR pretty far here and mostly it works but watch the halos which are noticeable around the front tires.
