Would've been more interesting if you were closer to the cart.

I'm a little disturbed by the way the nearest lamp post was cropped. Otherswise, it's a good juxtaposition.

Like the idea behind this, but would want both the two vehicles closer, and you closer to them.

Comment by EricMGB1974:
Interesting scene with the juxtaposition of the old and new, but I think a tighter crop would have improved this. There's just a bit too much foreground and the washed out sky is distracting. The oxen and cart would also be more visually interesting placed towards the lower left corner driving into the picture.

I don't think this works in color. Your sky is blown and your greens take over.

A crop suggestion:
Drag from the top of the first lightpole (cutting it out of the photo) down to the 3rd road line and drag over cutting out some of the right side.

This gets rid of a lot of that overwhelming green and blown out sky. It also gets rid of the chopped light pole and brings you closer to your subject while still carrying you through the photo with the road lines.

Nice idea, maybe a closer crop would make it better (both things are a little far away for my taste..)

I like the concept. I only wish that you could have moved closer to the subjects. the road in front does not really add much to the subject of the picture IMO. (pl. note that I am not suggesting a higher focal length, I only suggest taht photographer moves closer to subjects so that more focus is on the 2 vehicles)

I like the concept but I think the sky could be a little darker and the lamppoles are distracting.

good luck
