I like it. The BW rendition really highlights the details and textures which is the interesting part of old machinery (IMHO). Good parking space, too. On Tue, Apr 3, 2012 at 6:10 PM, Walt Gilbert ldott...@gmail.com wrote: Thanks, Dave! I knew you'd be one who might be interested in seeing

Thank you, Dan! I've taken a shine to old tractors as a subject. There is a certain aesthetic to them, isn't there? -- Walt On 4/3/2012 8:29 AM, Daniel J. Matyola wrote: That is an interesting and effective image. I like it. Dan Matyola http://www.pentaxphotogallery.com/danieljmatyola

Thanks, Bruce! The rot-ica play didn't occur to me, but it certainly does fit, doesn't it? :-) One of these days, I'm going to work on a collection of all the old tractors tucked back in fields and off in wooded areas around my neighborhood and use that as its title. -- Walt On 4/3/2012
