Like the colors and the rustic look of the wheel. Whish the background were solid and they image better composed....too centered horizontally.

I like the simple composition and colors -- wish it was all in the frame, as presented == one of my favorites this challenge

Great colors - too much space at top

Very nice colorful picture. Perhaps if the wheel wasn't so centered in the picture it might have been a bit better presentation. Love the warm colors!

Owch! The crop seems a little tight here, but the shot is still effective.

I'd crop from the top. Wish the botom and sides had all the wheel in them.

I kept coming back to this photo during voting, I want to vote it higher, but it just seems a bit soft in one spot, then has jaggies like it is too sharpened, can't quite put my finger on why it doesn't pop out at me like it should.

Looks like a flower. Very delicate and strong at the same time.

another "retired", "old" and "rusty" all together...

this rusty wheel on the reddish background would have made for a perfect artificial sun...
I would have tried the horizontal composition...

Composition 7, Colors 9, Image quality 7, creativity 8. "Vertical" lines are just a little bit off, which is kind of distracting from the very cool wheel shape and harmonizing color scheme.

Nice image.
