This tractor was over to the side of where we boarding for a hayride. I like many pictures of old farm equipment I've seen, including here on DPC, so it seemed like a good opportunity to use my wide angle lens.

Many thanks to my team Critical Mass and yanko, all of whom gave me advice on the processing.

Here's the original with a closer crop:

What a hoot! I never would have guessed it was your. The subject looks more like NikonJeb's style. The processing is very interesting. This was a really good study.

I'm not really a big fan of car or tractor shots because i guess I do not get any kind of emotional tug from them. What I love about this tho is that you actually made it look like the tractor is stepping towards you as if to pose. That is pretty cool to me and makes this one look different from the rest.

Love the perspective, but it's a little oversaturated for me.
