Default Variety of weekend photos, take2

Hi, i just thought i would just share a few photos i took this week end. The stones and the wheel i like as i tried to fill the frame with interest. The cart wheel i made sepia to show its age. The stationary is something i haven't done before as i learnt that if i use max focal length i can acheive a very blurred background and a crisp focal point, 200mm f9. I like the lemon in the foreground with the lemon tree in the back ground. Maybe it could have done with more DOF, but it was hard to see the veiw finder or live view as the camera was upside down under the tripod. Manual focus was clearer than auto focus. The up rooted tree i found so interesting when i saw it. I think it has been up rooted by flood waters and carried to its resting place against the live tree. Taken at Bells Rapids Perth WA. I think the colours have come out well.

Thank you for any comments that you make
