It Still Functions

Great idea, even if I would prefer a darker background

So THIS is what Hubby keeps calling me... "Wench! Get my dinner!... Wench! Get my..."

Just kidding! I have a WONDERFUL hubby.

I really like the contrasting greens and the rust... but I have a fondness for rusty stuff.

Good composition, too. I like this, Alan. ~Lydia

There is something uniquely attractive about rusty textures. Somehow many photographers (yours truly included!) cannot resist the temptation! :-)

The wonderful contrast between the earthy red/orange/brown and the greens in the background is definitely also the highlight for me. Well done. Regards Nico

With all that rust, I'm surprised this still functions as a winch! It's still now, but sure to be put to use soon I bet. Good color contrast between the winch and the green grass background. CJ
