Very nicely done Randy .
I like the side lighting effect.
and how the lighting looks on the ground.
My Grandfather used to have one just like it.
Only difference way the front wheels were close together for vegetable crops on his.

Great shots Randy!! I think I like the 2nd one better simply because it gives more of the total tractor!! Looks a lot like one my uncle had, except his was a narrow front end.

Wow Randy!
I had to look really hard at both of them.
At first I thought it was number two that I liked the best.
This was due to how the blue light effected the photo and is non intrusive.
But then I looked hard at the first one and I really liked the
angle of the tractor shot. They are both captivating.
In the end I would have to go with number one for the composition and tractor placement in the photo. But by no means is the second photo any less attractive. The lighting in the second photo is nicer to the eye then the first, for me anyways...

Yes wheels like that.
As a little kid that tractor looked big and tall.

That photo in black and white is gorgeous.
Seeing photos like these drive me to want to learn and improve. Your work really inspires me and makes me wish
I could be as good a photographer as you are. I really like your style.

Thank you so much Glen, but I have a hard time accepting that compliment.. I am just a guy with a camera, not even an expensive one.. If it were not for the digital age of photography I would not do it at all.. My style relies a lot on post software.. Many of my photos would be considered very mundane straight from the camera..... :)
