Thanks for all the comments. This pic happened so quickly. I saw the light, grabbed the chair, then the light was gone. This was my only chance to get this shot, not my chair or my wagon.

This is awesome, as it has a feeling of the past, with the rusty tones of the landscape, the old buggy, and that brilliant textured bright green velvet chair.....
Yes, it has the "WOW" factor for sure.....

Wow B ! Love the dash of green in the otherwise brown looking scape, and the out of place look of the beautiful chair. The evening or morning light is delightful too. Good finish in the challenge, congrats.

Do you always go around grabbing other people's chairs? :D I like the overall feel and warmth (lighting is doing that) of this image.

Some more breathing room at the bottom would help some (you cut off the chair, but probably already know that). :P

Nice idea. Needs a bit more contrast (IMO) and a wider crop. Nice comp on the landscape though.

What wonderful colors and textures! Too bad the sun wasn't more on the chair so the green would pop even more. Very creative!

Very nice image, really like the colors and contrasts. I think it may have been better without the sky which seems to draw my eye more than it should. Otherwise nice image.

JMHO...as the photo was loading I thought, "what a creative interpretation!" Excellent lighting, great setting and then the "chair" alarmed me. I realize it would have been a reach for voters to appreciate the arm rests on the wagon without the green chair...But I was all for it! I am voting as if the green chair wasn't there- 8

I love the way that the color pops from this photo.

The colors and lighting are what grab my attention here - possibly a tighter crop to include more wagon and less horizon and also all of the chair, but that is only my opinion.

i love the contrast in colours here, the chair really punches through, well done.

Great capture - What a shame though that you cropped out the chair leg??? Why did that happen?? The green is a great contrast to all the browns but just loses it on the crop. Maybe the chair on the wagon it's self could have been more dramatic??
