I don't care much for this, it feels a bit flat to me and the composition isn't particularly engaging, but I do like the color saturation.

Interesting looking tractor, not a huge fan of the high processing on the sky though

I'm not sure I like the processing here... and I wish I could see the bottom of the wheels. But, the sky is wonderful and the colors are fun. (not voting yet)

I kind of like it but I find that it is a bit over processed.

I like the composition, but feel the PP is overdone
