Walt I like the subject. I like the plainer version you posted. If you don't mind I may DL a copy and play with it I love to post process.

I have and old well pump I have been trying for 2 years to get something that matches the picture in my head, so I know where you are coming from. At least yours is in the backyard; I have to drive 15 miles every time I think of a new approach.

Here's a shot of an old coal oil lantern I took the other day while
doing yard work. It's old and rusted and would probably be a decent
subject in the hands of someone who's particularly adept at subtle HDR
-- which I'm not. So, I figured I'd convert it over to a monochrome and
give it a platinum process look, ad some grain and bump the contrast a bit.

For some reason, Flickriver is showing a little .jpg link icon right in
the middle of the photos at the moment, so I used the Flickr lightbox
display. Here's the normal flickr display for those who don't get along
with the lightbox.

Comments, critiques and suggestions welcome. I tend to have a heavy hand
with filters and such, so if there's something that I could be doing to
improve my images in that respect, please let me know.

Thanks!
