Title Spokes
Description please press L for lightbox

Sun rays mimic the spokes of an antique Buck Rake which languishes in a field, perhaps recalling an earlier day when it served a more noble purpose sweeping hay on a busy ranch.

This old piece of farm machinery is one of my favorite subjects and I happened to meet a rancher who said this Buck Rake was used in his family in the 1960's before they ultimately sold it to the the present owner to be used as a decoration lining the entrance road to the golf course.

This is a single exposure, double processed and fed into Photomatix for a fairly strong HDR tone mapping.

Lens is the FA31 Limited.

I love the way the rays mimic the spokes and that one tree framed by the spoke is a wonderful plus. This is really beautiful.
