Outside Marble Falls, Texas. While these discarded implements will never work again they certainly add photographic interest. Still early in the bluebonnet bloom so this scene promises to fill in even more in the weeks to come. All comments welcome. >=))>

Neat shot! I like the way you balanced the image with the two pieces of equipment. The foreground is great too and I can't imagine it filled in even more.

On my annoyingly dark work monitor the lighting looks a little flat and maybe on the cool side. But see what others say before making any adjustments.

Like this, Bill! My only critique is that the wagons aren't quite in focus, when it looks like that was your idea? The point of focus may be a bit too close...

Daniel: I actually have a thread on the general discussion forum about this very issue. On the original its sharp front to back and in my worked up PS version it looks fine.
