The more I look at this, the more I like it. Nicely framed and I like the play of dark and light. Very well done.

7 - Good effort to capture the era/year/feel for the Challenge (in my opinion, a shot of this put in a time capsule for this year gives a good depiction). Criticism; whilst I do really like this shot and the feel, I'll state the obvious and go against what you are obviously trying to achieve - for me, it is too dark. Especially on the pump, if that just had a touch more 'detail', it would make it a better photograph in my opinion. It is a fine shot though and the setting is good - even getting more detail on the house(?) or church(?) would lift it more for me, but I think I get your intent, and it still 'fits the Challenge' just a 'creative' take, so well done. Ok, from 6 -> 7.

FInally! Someone who followed directions, used the year for the title and submitted a GOOD photo. You deserve a 10!

Effective interpretation of a time long gone by, the waterpump clearly shows the sign of that era, well done..

Thats a great pump and I like the light reflecting off the right side, but the building in background (blurred edges) may cost you some points. Good luck!

Nice silouette, but the lighting from the seems a bit too strong.
