How this did not end up further up the chain is beyond me. Great shot.

Great clarity, very nice detailing, the light is a bit harsh and bright, but it did allow for the details of the wheel/wagon to come through. I think the composition needs a little bit of a fix. The wheel looks rather cramped and is cut off in places, wish it were more prominent and intact. I do think the grass adds a nice bit of color that breaks up all the brown, but it also draws the eye away from the subject. Overall I gave a 6

great clarity, but the crop on the wheel is not a good idea here...I love the tone of the shot 7
