    Hi Dave, Due to the image having a sepia tone it could be a candidate for OOTB but It's OK to leave it here. Interesting comp which I had to study awhile to come up with an opinion. I give you kudos for finding 2 not very interesting subjects and making them into a workable composition. I thought about cropping the image to the right of the little tuft of grass but decided that due to angle of the tire it was pointing to the distance and if cropped would take out that element. Good lighting and very imaginative....

    Hi Dave, thanks for the very thoughtful response as always.

    Maybe I'll go with OOTB for any like images going forward. It didn't strike me at the time, but I think the legible print on the tire really makes this one. As far as cropping to the right, for me it would remove any feeling of desolation on this one.

    First time I've ever rolled around a huge tire to make a photo, possibly not the last though :)

    Hi, Dave, the thumbnail on this caught my eye right away. :) This is a very interesting, moody image involving a tire! It's sharp and has really great tones and your composition & perspectives are perfect, IMO. The sepia is a great choice here! The image is "different" without being way out there, and I like that. More moving around of old tires for photography might be in your future. :D:eek:

    Thanks so much Anita, I guess we both like "trashy" compositions :)

    Dave,

    I did not see this image until now, but it is not the right forum. I would suggest this should have been in the Travel and Cityscape, a non-critique forum for nature and non-nature images. This is too much hand of man for the Landscape forum. I am leaving it here since it has been here over a week.

    Thanks for posting.
