My 2 wheeling days are done.
by Collin Baxter

This old planting machine is used as a ornament in one of our parks. Far better off than rusting unseen in a field somewhere.

Wow, this is a great shot Collin.

Great shot! I love the textures and the sky.

I really like this, Collin. The bare branches reaching into the dramatic sky add to its historical feel, like time passing yet preserving what it touches. And you pulled it off in the harsh light near high noon - nice!

This is a wonderful photo! I'm glad people use these old relics for ornaments. They're really quite nice and far better than rusting away like junk. Colin's right, its a great b&w conversion job too, wonderful sky! I love those huge Aloe (I think)plants too!

Super b&w conversion, nice example of agricultural history too, excellent that someone has thought to preserve so all can enjoy.
