farmer's best friend

fantastic capture

great image, being an old farm boy I can’t help but love it!

cool b&w, good image , so much history

Beautiful light and very original photo! Heel mooi!

Love the feel here! I’ve never seen an old tractor with such a wide wheel base. The differing tones in the iron at the back and the tall weeds so add to this, making it very memorable. Your’e so clever.

Beauty shot James! Great perspective and the weeds are framing it just nicley!

Nice shot! love the angle

love the textures ! The black and white even ages it more….......perfect !

Fab find …

wonderful find !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! fantastic capture in b,w!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

great shot, u captured the character in this old farmer’s workhorse ! db

This tractor has a wonderful face + the plant life adorns it well. I really like the subtle linear pattern behind the tractor too. A CLASSIC!

awesome black and white shot,,, love the lighting,,, well done

Looks like a trapdoor spider – Love the wide stance.

Great BW…My Daddy treats his old tractor like a fav. child.. =O)

GORGEOUS capture James and your title is soooooooooo perfect!

Fantastic find, composition, and light! Love the b&w. Very cool interesting image:)

Great lighting and tones. Love the perspective – the tractor seems telling its stories to viewers. Thanks for the technical data.

Hey, how did you fine our tractor? Oh well, guess we have done with out it this long….a while longer won’t matter… :o XX

I would love to know the use of this specific tractor since the wheels are obviously set at a wider stance.

Great capture JK.

great find and fabulous job capturing it.

Brilliant capture mate ,well done.

This is so great ,I love how the lines of the farm on the backgound just fade away,beautiful light ,superb in b&w.

very good lighting and composition, well done

wonderful capture, comp and lighting, looks like an old Massey Ferguson

Excellent presentation of a wonderful piece of machinery

Stunning shot JK, has to be an instant favourite. You’ve really caught the character of this old vehicle, its a superb find. The master at work again ;).

Wow, the lighting in this one makes a really strong statement. Having grown up in a farm community that’s fallen on hard time, this one really speaks to me.

fantastic in B&W

black white never looked so good!!

very nice ‘retro’ picture

Love the b&w and the way it is just coming out of the dark. Wonderful old machine!

Hi JK Great image of the 8N Ford Tractor. They were made from 1947 to 1952 and are still very popular. The front end is adjustable so it can be set to a wider or more narrow setting. This one is set pretty wide, most of them are kept on the more narrow setting. I have one just like it that I have had for 15 years and am just now in the process or redoing it, new paint and all. Excellent B&W image especially shot in the dark.

wow this is a stunning B&W and such an interesting subject
congrats on home page!!!!

Very nice subject and good capture. Where did you find it?
