Nice choice to include the pipe-smoking engineer, faded into the distance. Nice tension between man and machine.

Reel Mower

This is a rare case when selective desaturation really added something. I would have liked it much more if the reddish whatsit to the left of the reel mower were out of the photo.

Hmm. the piles of materials and the trailer suggest a construction site. We know that computer software is sometimes obsolete when it enters the marketplace, but I'm not sure the same can be said for apartments...

Sorry, the composition strikes me as being static .

"Out to pasture"

I like the glowing nature of the photo. I would have been tempted to shoot it with the axis on more of a diagonal. I'd also remove the single blade of grass dividing the photo in two or at least I'd wished I had when I got home.

Congrats. Great shot!

The grass fire is not a phenomenon stateside. You see the world differently once you've spent a couple hours beating the flames out at its periphery to save the compound - something I did once or twice as a child. This really captures the sense of threat posed by natural forces on our lives. Isolation from which somehow makes the world seem a little less real, a little less interesting, a little less alive. Thanks.

Beautiful. I love the vibrant colors, the sparkly reflections and the smooth curved surfaces.
