I always enjoy finding old equipment taken over by nature Bill. A good find and capture. :toast:

A great find and capture Bill.. Along with the subject, splash of colours, the DOF is very pleasing as well. Like this a lot.

Very nice Bill!! Maybe a tad more room on either side to see some more purple? Just a thought... :toast:

This is very cool, Bill! I like the selective focus and great flowers. I love old mechanical stuff, along with old buildings. Very well done!

I like this a lot Bill. I love seeing these old farm implements in the fields, too bad you don't see that many of them anymore. I love the selctive DoF in this, and the tree helps the comp as well. Nicely done.

Looks like a great showing of bluebonnets in Texas this year, Bill! Nice eye in combining them with the old farm implement. Any idea what it is?

These old bits of equipment are getting harder to find. This is a particularly interesting item too! The flowering field and dof augment it nicely.

I might prefer if there were fewer branches from that small (dead?) shrub obscuring the details of the old machine. That would increase it presence nicely.

Love this...... :smile: I would like to see a bit more room on each side, but even so, this is nice. You ought to have a print of this hanging somewhere. :smile:
