Comment from Orion008
It looks like it used to be the skeleton for an old'in times horse carriage. Grass is starting to grow around it, better get a move on that garden, once the ice melts- orion008.

Nice image, Debbie.
I like how you have composed this with the open gate in the background. Nice clarity throughout. Great work on this!

Now I remember what's that's called, a thingamaggie :-) Great work, would like to see more detail on thingamagiie, it is a bit dark. But other than that great work.

I just looked at your other picture and I still think black and white would just date these pictures well! The apparatus would just look wonderful and the snow would gleem. Just a thought an a very good picture!

Hhmmmm...initial impact is that I don't have a clue what this is a picture of. I am not familiar with farm equipment (or any equipment at all for that matter unless it is computer related...LOL!) I think this picture is probably a rare find. It looks abandoned maybe just for the winter?

A great image here. The snow enhances the overall appearance of your subject. Very good use of light. I like how you placed the main subject. Good work, Deb.

Comment from kopilow
I think the snow adds just the dimension this subject needs to make it a really god image. Contrasts nicely with the warm light & dark thing-a-maggig!

Thank you kop!

Comment from shiverfix
Your shots have been so good! A very nice depth, with great background details. You have the thirds, with the fence on the top third, and the thing-a-maggic on the lower left third. The contrast is nice, giving the colors a nice saturation. The exposure is good, which can be very difficult on a shot with this much snow and a dark subject.
