Comment by Swashbuckler:
I really like the handle motion, good effect! Seems a bit red/orange, but so much of the rest seems "right", I am guessing that is how it really looks. Was the water drinkable? Probably couldn't avoid the fence, would have rather not seen it. All in all, there's nothing critically wrong with this shot, nice job! 8 Swash

Comment by owennnn:
so that's where water comes from ... was the water that came out really as clear as it looks? My eye does not find a clear focus in this picture, partly due to too many objects, and partly lack of contrast. You might have tried to get in closer and omit the drain and fence and blurry end of the handle.

A striaght-on shot from a different direction would have made this very appealing. The chain link fence in the background leads my mind astray from the age of the hand pump. The out of focus handle also distracts my vision from the center of the picture.

This one might have been better B/W. Since all colors are close in this one, the eye is a little confused.

This picture appears to have been over processed with your computer program. I would also suggest that if it were possible that you move around to eliminate the small sappling and as much fence as you can. The pump is very intereting and the other things distract and hurt your picture. Autool

Comment by jmsetzler:
This is a nice example of 'old' for sure... the motion blur adds a nice touch as well... my critique on this image lies in contrast and the background. Your subject doesn't stand out against this background... it blends in too much and it's difficult to 'see' because of this. I don't know if there would have been a better angle for this photo or not... - jmsetzler

Part of this photo should probably be the subject and focused on rather than the whole thing.

Comment by karmat:
Is that desaturated colors? I like the effect. I think the picture could be improved overall by using a different angle that showed more water and less chain-link fence. Otherwise, a great shot!
