The Old Farmall 300 in the Dinosaur Shed

PHOTOGRAPH INFO

This photograph was taken tonight about 6:00 p.m. in the beautiful evening sunlight.

The Farmall 300 was built in the mid-50s. This one is sitting in a shed that has a corn crib attached to the side, so the slight 'pattern' on the tractor is actually the silhouette of the corn crib mesh in the late day sun.

Post-processing: Shot with the Canon EOS 5D and the Canon EF 24-70mm f/2.8L lens at 24mm, ISO 400, shutter speed 1/125s and aperture f/2.8. Curves adjustments, color balancing for tone.

Thank you for visiting Durham Township!

It looks as if the tractor is partly made of wood. Great colors as always :-)

Excellent with the side-lighting and the bull-nose of the tractor leading the eye in.
