I can only imagine what this would have looked like if the thresher was working. Seems like there would be dust everywhere and these guys would be sneezing their heads off. Love the look of this because it's not something you see every day. The focus, lighting and BW image all work to show off an interesting image! Good Luck in the Contest! :o) Helvi

Nice black and white entry. I like that the darker and lighter areas are standing out nicely and well defined. Which really makes your subjects pop. I did have to chuckle as it reminds me of observing the city works around my area, one working and three watching and visiting :) Well done.

This is a wonderful visual presented here of these gentlemen. I love your use of black-and-white that highlights them perfectly. Composition, shades, tones and textures are very well presented. Thank you for sharing.

I love the country feel of this one and I think the B&W was a perfect choice to give it that yesterday look.
Well captured to show the 4 men with this large piece of equipment used for farming.
Well focused, this image is clear and your exposure is correct.
Good tonal range.
Well composed and presented!
