Extra points out of empathy with an all too familiar frustration.

The only thing that keeps me from giving this a good vote is the way both the person and mover are cut off at the edge of the frame. This tends to draw my eye to the grass in the center, rather than the actual scene that is occurring.

I feel his pain.

Edit: After careful consideration, I gave this photo my highest score. Good luck.

The frustration really comes through. As someone who has waited far too long to mow her lawn in the past, I can relate. ...and just looking at this photo makes my lungs want to swell up and quit!
