I like this shot even though I think it just skirts the challenge. Not much wheel showing, but what is here is beautiful. The color balance between the rust and the blue green of the door are just perfect. Good composition, clever play withthe rule of thirds, one of my favorites, which is often the kiss of death for ribbon contenders.

The yelow of the oak and the reflections in the upper left hurt this compostion, putting too much attention away from your central focus.

Too dark, it has interesting massing but I can see no detail in the subject and the sky isn't so glorious that it was worth the tradeoff.

Pretty shot but a bit too abstract and a long way to go to get to a mouse wheel, which is barely a wheel anyway. I like the image and was trying one way and onother to see what it was and when I finally saw it I was disapointed that it wasn't a wheel wheel, had it been the payoff whould have been as high as the shot is pretty.

Nice shot, well exposed and converted, with a silky B&W feel, but tires and whells are not the same thing. Of course if I had taken this shot I would have submitted it cause it is quite nice.

good colors, but poor focus.

Well exposed and composed but that just makes the red box with the reflective glass and the rest of the backround even more distractiong. If the backround was blank this would have been a contender.

Great textures across a very close series of tones A bit chaotic but quite evocatie.

Traction Redline

Nice execution of main subject but what is that in the backround? How much effort whent into this? Looks like enough to justify the effort of moving that black thing or getting some paper to cover it over.

I want more smoke! Good idea but the backround is too dominant, perhaps a screen of smoke would have helped?
