Fantastic shot. Beautiful color in the sky in the background and the greatest, most unusual angles caught in action. It was worth all the maneuvering. I hate to be so simple, but is it some kind of farm machinery? I gather from your title, it is.

I think this one is absolutely fascinating. I love the angle and the lovely blue sky and cloud patterns. The sky makes a lovely contrasting color to the hay rake which also creates interesting patterns and shapes. Very lovely work. I said "WOW" as soon as I saw it.

I love that Topaz ajust.
Great color and light.
You took from an interesting angle, giving us view to the repeated patterns of spokes, and their definition against the blue clouded sky.
good lines and lots of them although I kind of wish that the left side of the support, the curve wasn't cut off. I know your focus wasn't there, but it contributes to the overall shape of the composition.
Very good clarity and I'm glad it's all in focus.
very good amount of light. Like the brightness of this picture.
vivid and lively.

Thank you so very much! you are the second one to mention the curve. I think it was cut at the time of the shot but not sure. I will go back to the original and see!

Willie, I just simply love this! The angles are so striking. The perfect blue sky and clouds in the background is just so amazing in this shot. Well done. And good luck!
