Cute; very cute. Might want to crop the top just a bit...house is distracting.

The subject is an amazing specimen of rust ... I really like the weathered quality and color of it. I don't care much for the composition, I think a closer image, perhaps even just a wheel or the engine block would be more successful, but I can see how you wanted to keep the green grass in the frame as a good background/contrast.

get closer to the tractor, I wanted to see more detail

Nice picture of the tractor and orchard. The residential area behind seems out of place. Spring grass is so yellow that a better contrast for the orange of the tractor might come later in the year, especially with a deeper blue in the sky.

A 6.

It looks to be overexposed, causing a great loss in detail.

Nice shot. I would have liked it better if you cropped out the top part of the picture. It distracts from the subject.

The compostition is a little off in this photo. I think it would be a little more appealing if it had a cleaner image or if the lighting were different....

poor lighting. colors are flat. sky is gone. even just a shorter exposure would've helped a lot

is the background really needed

I think you would have taken a close up shot of the tractor this would have been a better shot

This is a good shot, however, the light from the sky takes away from it and leaves the entire photo bland. If the sky light would have been dim the tractor would have been darker and had a more 3-dimentional look to it.

I've been looking for that....great title.
  Photographer found comment helpful.

Nice picture.
My improvements would be:
change hue of sky
boost saturation
reduce the brightness - a little overexposed.

Nice image! A tighter crop would have made a stronger composition, love the colors!

solid title

Would have been nice to have the background house cropped out.

Cool tractor and cool title ;) The lightning is difficault here, It seems overexposured, The sky seems washed out and colors seems a bit flat, Good luck :)

A closer crop would add lots to this image. As it is it looks more like a snapshot while cropping it would turn it into a more professional looking image

Over exposed. Might have been better shot from the other side.
