Take a Seat!

Love the colors and the composition here. Great job and yes …as a fellow Texan I have been to a tractor festival. Great piece of art ya’ll! :)

Great patterns and what interesting paint jobs they have. OK Emma so you throw buffalo chips and what else? :-)

Thanks, Anita and Susan! You too, Peter… although I think I misled you. There are chip throwing contests in Texas, but we haven’t been to one yet. I meant WE as in Texans. Thrown horseshoes, yes…. Cow poo-poo, not yet! If we ever do, I’m sure we’ll take a picture of it – ha!

Wonderful patterned shot, bright, colourful and eye catching, Well Done !!

I sat on some very similar while riding on the tractor with my grandpa :)

Bet it hurt! These didn’t look very comfortable to me! :)

Really neat to see all these in different colors! And they are “vented” too! Nice shot Emma!

Thanks, Charles! There were lots of really neat old tractors we took shots of, but so far none have popped out like this one. :)

Great shot! I can see why people collect them!

Thanks, Bruce! This guy had a ton of them. Well displayed too.

I know folk who would probably pay a fortune for these even if rusy. Its a great collection, well displayed, and photographed with enough clarity to read the makers and painting – wonderful, as usual.

Ah, GD… you are always SOOOO encouraging! Thanks for keeping tabs on our work. The seats you see are actually just a smidge of what he has – He hauled about six of these segments around… on…. you guessed it… a TRACTOR! :)

I love the colours in this image. Great photo. My Dad used to have a tractor with a seat like this.

How fun! I bet he would have enjoyed this festival. Tractors from all time periods were there. Very interesting!

Great shot ladies, keep on clicking!

Thanks, ChefGreg! We will!

This is beautiful and bright and completely charming! VEry unique and eye catching image!

Thanks, Jan! I love the colors. It was a very unusual collection to be sure.

now thats art!..great find

Wow! Thanks, Pete! You know, it didn’t print out as vibrant as it looks on the screen, however. Hmmm.

great image which really tells a story

Thanks, Phillip!

This is cool ~ I’d have taken a photo of this too!

Thanks, Lisa! It was a fun day with loads of great photo ops.

i love the colors and the perspective… I definitely voted!

Thanks HoLoGrAFiX! She is sitting right here reading your comment – she says “thanks” too!

This is really just amazing…I have a 6yo son who is also a very talented photographer…I hope she wins…it is well deserving

Thanks Ken! Hey, foster that talent with your son! That is how Emma started out. She now has a passion which for a kid is great! Something other than the usual video game stuff most kids gravitate towards. My kid is out there doing something worthwhile! Anyway, keep encouraging him!

Thanks for the nice comments. Love the color in this one. I have two old tractor seats in my barn. hmmmmm!

Thanks Bret! :)

this is an amazing capture for someone so young!!! amazing work :D

Thanks!!! She really tries hard. Redbubble has been good for her. The contest is still going on if you’d like to vote for this pic to win. www.country-magazine.com is the site. Click on photo contest. She’d appreciate it!

Nice shot Emmaleigh, very colorful with great detail.

Thanks a bunch, posyrosie! I love your name by the way – so fun!

Thanks also, Shano! We appreciate you taking the time to vote for her. It would be really wonderful if she wins the category, but she is going up against some good shots. We’ll see! I’ll keep you posted.

This is great, I have a couple of these myself, tell your daughter I wlll vote for her. Good work young lady.

Sorry but when I went to the link for country magazine it will not open. I copied and pasted it from your description.

this is awesome love it well done

Thanks, ferndesign!!!!

Fantastic shot!! Like the uniqueness of each seat.

Thanks, Chazz! :)

Yaay, that was so much fun. I voted three times and just made up email addresses.
My eye was drawn to this because I saw tons of these going to steam rallies as a young fella.
Its a cool pic.

SOOOOOO cool that you liked it! I need to update this pic on RB, however…. SHE WON!!! We just got a letter the other day saying she won the category. This photo will compete against the other category winners sometime next fall for the grand prize. Thanks for voting, however! Maybe we can ask you to do it again in the fall????

GREAT PHOTO EMMA, NICE COMPOSITION. I THINK I SAT ON THAT ONE IN THE MIDDLE. HAHA. MY DAD’S FATHER USED TO HAVE A ROAD GRADER WITH ONE OF THESE SEATS ON IT. IT SURE WAS HARD ON THE B*##. CONGRATULATION ON THE WIN. KEEP UP THE NICE WORK. BOB

Thanks Bob! I haven’t actually sat on one of these yet, but the guy that owns this 600+ collection has invited us to see the total collection. I’m sure we’ll get our chance to feel how cushy they are…. NOT! :)

This is awesome. I want my own collection of tractor seats now!

Thanks, Tedri! Apparently there is an active trading/purchasing/selling network out there for them. The man that owns these purchased some and traded for others – from all over the world. Guess I’m in the wrong profession.

Your 10 year old daughter has a great eye! What a wonderful photo. I think it’s super that you share the web site with your daughter and you share the same hobby! Wow…..

Hey, thanks, Photomojo! I don’t know if she’ll keep up her break neck pace, but for now I am really enjoying our “time together”. :) Thanks for the comment!

I know few old farming codgers who’d just love this one. Briliant take!

Thanks so much! We’ll be asking you to vote for it for Country Magazine’s Photo of the Year contest soon! This one was selected as one of 6 finalists!

Great find, EmmaLeigh … and perfect capture.
I wouldn’t mind riding on a tracor again in one of these. Congratulations.

Thanks Christine! The seats look rather hard to me…especially bouncing up and down in a field. I’m into comfort – ha! We appreciate your comment!

This is wonderful! Great colors and composition! :) Mekea
