A wider fstop would have put the background out of focus and wouldn't distract from the carriage.

A wider Fstop would also have allowed me to shot a little faster. Might have lost sharpness of detail on the wagon, but it was hard to tell when looking at the LD on the camera.

i think sepiatone would look best, reduces the brightnes of b/w and adds old time flavor to the shot. if not sepia then color.

Composition good but would have liked more contrast

Hard to get at ISO 3200, but it might be possible in software. I will give it a try.

Still pretty good considering the ISO
