 I found these guys working the field with this ancient machinery pulled by a horse. It reminded me of an ancient time when people used to live a simple (and probably hard) life without fancy new machines to ease their work.
Hope you will enjoy it too.

Simple, clean, and reminiscent of a bygone era. One of my favorites in this challenge.

I wish there were more dramatic colors in the sky, but it is still a great image. "9"

Very nice...a good amount of negative space and a very vintage painterly quality!

I really like the content of this.....The sky's gentleness matches the farmers so well. They have a lot of work yet huh? Anyway, thanks for the photo - 10

With the horse hanging his head, it looks a bit (to me) like they men are discussing their lack of crop yeild. A bit lonesome.

I like this one. I think it would also look nice in a sepia or B/W maybe with some fairly obvious dodge/burn to the sky to really make those clouds dramatic. The fairly muted tones you've got here are nice too though.
