 The sky was very washed out that day, I would have liked it to have a bit more colour. I did think about cropping it closer to the wheel. This was about 7 miles from my home, the area was quite flooded.

Oldtimer. Great composition. What would have turned this from very good to outstanding, I think, is a bit of tone mapping or some other trick to get a wider range of exposure so the sky isn't so white. having written that I realize the sky hasn't been anything but white for the past, oh, three months here, but still it seems just a bit too bright.

I love the moss and the texture of the wheel though. I also like how it's jacked up with a stone. Nice find. Well done.

I think there's so much detail and texture in this wheel, but it's just so far away. Wish we were cropped in tighter to the wheel so we could fully appreciate the aged nature of this wonderful relic!

the sky is a bit blown out and lifeless, but other than that it is a nice shot
