One of these days I will clean it up.

I figure that this isn't going to win the Tidy Farms Award for 2015 but at least there is an effort to keep all the stuff in one area so I suppose that counts as a bit tidy.

Any comments

That's how a farm should look Peter. Nice understated treatment

That's quite a collection, and very nicely captured. It also looks like a Series II 88 Land Rover.

Singing Swan

A sculptor's paradise... I see sooooo many things in there I'd salvage and re-purpose. Great shot but it makes me wish I could be there..... wait, that's what a good photo is supposed to do? Right? Well, this one succeeded even if everyone else just sees a pile of junk. This one certainly proves beauty is in the eye of the beholder! ! :)

I was liking the shot and when In did the download loved it even more. The tones to me are spot on and i think work well in B & W.

Yes!

Very good working the colors into "Shades of Gray".

This is very good work.

I am guessing that you wanted to show the whole scene to emphasize the untidy nature of this part of the farm. The problem for me is that the composition is also a bit untidy and I don't see a central focal point for the viewer. I'm moving from the truck to the shed to the big tank to the trees. I think I would try several crops that bring the viewer in close and give him a strong idea of what you want him to see. I do like the black and white. You would always have the whole image to go back to. Exploration might be fun with this image.

For me - Only Me - My eye fell on the old "Land-Rover" .. Then went to the Left. Then continued in a Counter-Clockwise circle.
I found it pleasing.

However....

Like ALL ART .. It Is All Subjective, to any viewer.
