I love that you have captured something so ordinary, and created an interesting, alive shot with it.

i really like this siloutte and overall effect of this...my eye is drawn to the bright light at the top of the photo, a tighter crop may have been more effective imo...good luck!

I find the large white spot overtakes this photo and ruins the great coloring you were able to capture.

Some may complain about the blown out area but I think it really adds to this photo, it has an almost haunting feeling. I love the colors.

I love the subject. I often photograph old and antique farm equipment as my dad is a collector. Love it.

Nice sunset. Seems a little overexposed at the top.

Very nice, colors are fantastic. Excellent idea using the farm equipment and open space.

Having lived on a farm I can definitely relate to this image. Brings back many memories. Very nice photo!

I really like the harvester (?... I'm a city boy) -- it's an interesting subject, but the sun is terribly blown out. Perhaps cropping the image to eliminate it would help.

A bit too much blown out white imo, would have been better with some of the top cropped out

nice photo, a bit too bright in the white, draws my eyes from the silhouette, and there is some sharpening or resize distortion on the silhouette, possibly bi cubic with smooth would get rid of some of the jaggedness. 7
