Let em laugh, those are great shots. I need to get down low more often. I get caught in the "stand in front of subject and shoot" mode. Nice job showing why you shouldn't do that.

Lol Ian, its about time you won a round. I'm glad you went back too buddy. The angles in these beautiful captures are once again excellent.

Great work buddy and I hope you didnt relieve them of too much cash.

Dave.

Isn't it strange how some people clearly don't understand the photographers needs.
This is great work Ian, love how you've contrasted the sharp focus of the flowers against the rusty metal, good job buddy

What great composition The old rusting wheels and the new sprouting flowering life and the down low angle add to the whole feeling Nice work.
