Abandoned, or simply done for the work-day? A 5, but not my idea of abandonment. The machine in question shows no signs of disuse or typical wear and tear that a truly abandoned piece of machinery would show. It's obviously been recently used.

Kind of a shoehorn...doesn't look abandoned so much as "at rest" between jobs. Tracks are neat, points on bucket are sharp and clean. And it's in the middle of a construction area.

Looks more at rest than abandoned. Great POV.

Hmmm... I'm not so sure about that. Great colour, light and wide angle perspective, but I seriously doubt it's been abandoned. The guys have just knocked off for the day is all.

It's a really great photo. But, the front end loader is so recently used, it still has teeth rubbed shiny and mud on the tires. Good photo, though.

Great perspective, Nice sky, good contrast and nice processing. It looks too new for an abandoned feel. No vote just comments

I like this, it has depth, it has wow factor (wow! that's big) and nice composition.

Love the wide angle, great processing.....the tire tracks, clean cylinders, and fresh gravel really don't speak abandoned to me.....8>) 5
