Sugar Hill, NH

An old piece of farm equipment sits abandoned in a field of lupines. This is a popular spot as it is hard to get an image with the grasses and lupines not being trampled under foot.

As always thanks for taking a look and leaving a comment or suggestion.

I thought they had taken this hay rake away.  Glad you found it.  Think a little more saturation would bring out the lupines dominance a little more... seems a little flat.  Do you happen to have a horizontal of this?

Wonderful image Ed.  The comp and colors work for me.

I love how you composed this with the foreground lupines more dominant than the rake. The large image is great with all the detail in the grasses. I know you didn't take this this year>devil
