Nice entropy.
Only thing that detracts for me would be the blown sky, B&W conversion anyone?
Other than that, a nice photo.

I think the vintage machinery warrants conversion. B+W, or sepia?
Bump contrast? Make the spider web pop?
Live the smooth background, gives nice setting with the second machine.
nice work!

I like the shot, the balance between the main focus and the OOF tractor... would of been a good entry for the agriculture challenge we have running.

True, I didn't think to check when it was taken..
BTW, glad you've plucked up the courage to post an image, really it isn't as scary as it looks

Great to see it up here, you know I love this pic!
I would like to see this in sepia as well could prove very interesting, never thought of that before!

Really cool picture as suggested already b&w for this shot would look great and i feel a tight crop would look good as well about an inch off the right, left and top. And a sharpen my make the web really stand out as for me that is the main focus.

I like the subject and the colours, but since the bars on the grille act as leading lines to the web and the lettering, IMHO it's distracting that the curved part of the grille on the left is out of focus.

Nice first up picture dodge....works well in colour as well as b&w...for me the blown sky isn't much of an issue as IMHO it doesn't draw my eye away from the main subject area...nice shallow DoF
