I had to look at this for a while, at first I thought that this was a staged shot of the earth and you were trying to dpicte the cracked ozone layer but than I relized it was a gauge in a car.

it is frequently frowned upon to place the center of interest in the direct center of the photograph, but in this shot, I think it happens to work very well. I always love it when someone breaks the rules and gets away with it. nice shot. I love the colors and the gritty feeling.

This is definitely an old fuel gage :) I think this photo would have some extra visual impact of the view was a little wider and the gage was off center... good shot :) - jmsetzler

good shot..very sharp..if it were a little off center I think it would look better.

It may be dirty but it's a really cool photo. I love textures and grunge and this just works:) = 9 Shiiizzzam

This picture teases you with words you can't quite make into a sentance. Nice framing and a good subject. A little low intensity fill-in flash might have captured some of the shadow details.

This picture hits the mark – tops, technically as well as artistically, this is the second 10 today – the lighting sold it far me. It creates a really great sense of devastation as well as age – my winner (so far) – good luck…

I used to work for Harvester International through a temp agency (accounting).
