[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
This tractor must have been around for many decades, but it looks like its now enjoying "retirement" on the beach Cromer ... still doing a little work pulling small boats in and out of the sea.

Hi Finlay,
A lot of character in this shot taken from great POV. Subject looks like it has given many years of service, although you probably wouldnt want to travel to far on it...
Interesting Work, TFS
Kind Regards
Steve

Hi Finlay,
Yes, I've seen many old tractors on such jobs. A good portrait giving feeling of this place. I afraid that salty and moist climate doesn't do good for the health of this veteran though.

Very good pov, I do like the note very much. The subject and the so different background (which doesn't fit) give an impressive picture.

Hi Finlay, I have seen this before, near my house they use tractors to drag the boats up the beach, although you must have captured the oldest tractor on the planet, even so it gives the photo great corrector, the positioning is very good indeed, in this shot I could see the softer colours working, any stronger & the shabbiness of our main star may not of been portrayed as well, TFS, kind regards Wilson.

Hello Finlay,
Very good pov. Interesting work, TFS Well done.

Looks like the poor old tractor tumbled down. There is a lot of more life in the boats it's pulling, at least when you consider the colors...

Privet,Finlay,
It is fine! Old iron beach toiler. Good compo and details.
I like it too.

Best regards from Ural,
Serghei
