Technically this picture is perfectly executed. I like the angle and the choice of reduced DOF to focus on the tank against the sky. The use of a polarizing filter makes the sky beautiful and the blue contrasts well with the orange. The great clarity and detail make this picture very pleasant to look at.
But the main problem in my opinion is that this image does not convey the idea of transportation. I am not sure I understood what your point was when you took this picture. I think the way you took this picture is in contradiction with what you meant. The angle and composition of this picture in my opinion make this image quite static, which is in opposition with the theme.
This is really too bad, since otherwise the technical quality of this image is very impressive. Great work anyway.

I like the angle you shot this photo in. The sky looks nice in the background.

like the yellow and blue, great clouds. Why did you choose to have this part of the forklift in the foreground? It is confusing, not the full name, not in focus. I like the composition of shapes, the near and far, but it just doesn't all pull together for me.

Great saturation and clarity. Doesn`t quite say transportation but close enough.7

I focus more on the tank.

I like that clarity and all of the different colors used in this picture. I think that by getting more of the forklift in the picture would have been more creative but very nice job

Nice color saturation! Doesn't really evoke a sense or communication of transportation to me, but it is highly interesting and engaging.
