Jan 13, 2015		     Thanks for the comments. I knew I needed something to represent the size but had nothing (no one) available. This great museum is now closed due to an asbestos problem and won't re-open for a few years.

elliot - Got the tint from Topaz B&W, glad you and others liked it.

Jan 12, 2015		     I like the overall look of this one. The tint is great for this old metal. Would have been nice to have avoided the shadows at the top and left.

Jan 11, 2015		     (is there really a 'hazelnut' tint??) i like it. i've been trying to make some metal shots look more like brass but haven't come up with the right mix yet. i like what you did here. the wheel is so much bigger than it appears here.

Jan 10, 2015		     Nice composition. You really don't get an appreciation for the size of the wheel from the image itself.
