wheel barrel in the garden

This is a pretty busy photo with the main topic (weelbarrow) not in focus. I am not trying to be a smarty, but you have a lot of great subjects, and I think you should take a picture with any one of them up close to stand out as the subject of your photo. The hose, the picket fence, and the wheelbarrow are all fighting for the center stage. 5

Simple but nice. An over done technique, but noneless the water sure does add to the picture. 6

This would have been a rather nice picture without the plate? in the water. Why is it there? 8 without and 4 with.

This is a wonderful use of back light, which shows painstaking effort getting the right composition. A winner all the way! 10

Thank you all for the support and great comments on this picture.

I have wanted to enter a picture of these two for a long time now and I felt this challenge fit my subject material real well. If you have a good subject it's not so hard to make a good picture, as long as the luck holds out.

I knew it was in good company all week as the lowest that it got was around 7.298 with a high of 8.00 when it first started. It has been exciting.

Thanks again!

Dick

I figured it was a subway and I knew it wasn't in the US, it was way too smooth. Congratulations!
