    I used to be loved
    I thought I had already posted this but couldn't find it so appologies if it is here. I blame it on overworked, old age, and anything else you can think of :-)

    Roger, this is really a very good image. I like this alot. Your composition is fine as is the subject. At first sight i thought it looked soft on focus. But that is because the foreground debris is slightly out of focus, but the sharpness is on the carriage, as it should. I dog the cracked windows giving it the appearance of eyes. Great spotting and execution.

    i think i would have moved the dead tv in the forground. it seems a little out of place with the rest of the shot. but i like the angle on the ... er ... wheeled thing ;) and how lucky was it that the left and right window were busted out, but the midle one was not!

    I also think it's great Roger. Even though Gary beat me to it, I'll still say that the cracked windows look like shattered eyes. Giving the feeling of sadness, which goes really well with what you're trying to get across. Great shot.

    Thanks for the comments,

    I must admit I was quite pleased with this, and wasn't sure whether the old tele and the old tin box should have been included, hence the reason for posting this one.

    To get the photo I used my monopod for stability, cursing not having my tripod for the longer exposure.

    Exif: ISO 50, 1/50th, f3.5

    Leels, Gary, it was the eyes that attracted me to the shot, taken on a frosty early morning.
