My first impression is that this is an attractive shot, the combination of the rusted hole with the texture of the wheels is really nice. Framing the image with the hole in the middle seems appropriate here, although the dark area to the left is a bit distracting. Tighter cropping probably would work better. The shallow depth of focus works well for me, having the hole out of focus leads the eye into the picture. Colors and lighting are very nice, the small spot of grass adds just the right amount of 'non-rust' color.

I like the framing of the opening and the variety and positioning of the rusting wheels. Nice focus and depth of field.
I would have preferred a point of view to the right and above that of the current camera position. There is something in the background here that is distracting. I also would have liked less negative space and tighter cropping almost to the edge of the window.
A 5.

I really like this photo, it has interest in it...I like the perspective. I think that overall I might have enjoyed a closer image of the hole less of the surrounding edge. But I love the repetition.
This is a good and original take on the Challenge. Love the way you framed the wheels. Wonder what the composition would have looked like if you had made the framing material sharp as well... Doesn't matter, what you have is pretty darn good!
I think a slightly tighter crop would have helped this image. The out of focus foreground is a bit distracting from the background wheel arrangement. The hole you made use of did a great crop on the background wheels though - definitely a creative image!
