The lead image for me, followed by #7, #11 and #14 all equal

The leaves ( #3 ) are the highlight for me John, just superb

#4 For me, superb colours

Sunset through trees ?

No problem John

With the edit, I traced around the sky using the hills as the bottom line, feathered the line then reduced the brightness and increased the contrast twice as it didn't come down far enough first time, then inverted the trace and again reduced the brightness and increased the contrast on the lower section then did a slight shadows lift to bring some engine detail back in the tractor.

The halo around the bush is there on the original and on Gary's edit but it could be blended in with time and a small dodging brush

Perhaps the bottom section in hindsight could be slightly lighter looking at it again a day after, but that's down to everyone's taste

Hi John,

I hope you don't mind, I've downloaded the tractor image and done a very quick edit where I would probably see the image, I like the overall shot but would have ensured the rear wheel was fully in the shot, I do agree with the overall comments as above.

I know about the halo behind the bush and on the horizon, as suggested it was a very quick edit.

#4 for me John, a bit of grungy paint and some rust, superb

Excellent set all round the only suggestion would be to crop out the car on the right of #2

Thanks Gareth, I've toned the stalk down a tad, the image was pretty much straight out of the camera and it was all natural light on the kitchen worktop but with doors and blinds etc closed to ensure the tile's were as black as possible

Stalk toned down a tad

Thanks Peter,

The lass wasn't staged, but I liked the contrast in colours with her jeans against the poppies and her red top against the trees
