Sears man
by noearlybird

I bought a new lawn tractor today, the fifteen year-old one died. This young man who is also a student at the university near us saw my new forty-dee and proceeded to ask many questions about it. He's still a film person he said but wants to "go digital". He asked me so many camera questions that I forgot to ask lawn tractor questions but I got a shiny new red one. It's got a cup holder and even mows in reverse, warning signs on it against running over children made me laugh.
I'd rather have a 35mm f1/4L but oh well.


other sizes: small medium large original auto

Good composition. It really does tell a story.

Great sense of place, and good exposure too.

This is a great portrait. The red metal leading up to the subject draws you right in. Great job!
