Rusted Gear
by Bud

Comment:
I like the rust and the detail. The out of focus foreground is a little distracting, and the large white space in the upper right draws the eye out of the frame a bit. I am also not real keen on the almost purple color. That said, I do think this is an interesting subject choice and a good choice of angle. OK shot - 6.

I like the angle, and the detail shown, but I am a little distracted by so much white space. Just personal preference. Well done. 7.

I like the simple approach. I think it fits this challenge well. I am not sure the BW was the right choice for this shot, but I think it is good. The spigot almost appears to be hanging in mid air. 7.

This is a good shot, kinda looks like a tractor sales calendar shot. No big wow, but good. 7.

The Old Fashioned Way

Comment:
Good subject choice, and I like the "Old Fashioned" feel created by the shot. I think the composition could have been more interesting with a different angle, or maybe less centered. Overall good work. 7.

Nice colors and composition. I like the line that moves through to the steering wheel in the background.

I think this looks like an extremely difficult shot done well; however, I think it would have been improved with a colored background. Nice job.

Interesting abstract, but doesn't exactly meet the challenge in my opinion. Great angle.

I like this idea, and scored it well. That said, if feels a little cramped. I think you might have crowded a bit too much in the lower half of the frame. Good job though.
