 Not a challenge winner as I am sure there will be many old farming trucks or something along similar lines presented in this challenge, but seeing as how I am spending the weekend out on the prairies away from the city, I figured I would shoot something I don't normally see everyday.

Metz 54-mz4 combined with an off-shoe camera cord and pointed from above the camera and down towards the grill.

With the perfect symmetry of the shot I would love to have seen the sky on the right side reflected on the left. If you get around to it see what it would look like with the tree cloned out. Great exposure.

Love this one. The straight on shot works perfect for me.

Great colors here! The light is just a little harsh on the grill. I might have defused it just a bit for this. I like the tinge of rust and the grass on the bottom of the frame. Nice shot.
