Nice tractor.

They should have use the red paint the red box was painted with to paint all off the tractor! Of cause you wouldn't have had this nice rusty colour and no nice picture.

the composition seems a bit... plain. almost as if the picture were for a "tractor for sale" posting on craigslist, or something. try mixing it up with angles and placement.

Good point, but that was not possible. The one bush behind it blocks a parking lot and from any other angle you see parked cars that really distract from the tractor. But I agree with the concept.
