I came across this old truck while out driving yesterday and went back this morning to catch the early light. My intent was to do more detailed shots, which I did, but while walking out across the field, the line of the old dirt lane caught my eye. I can't decide which of these I like better.

I think I'd crop about 1/3rd off the top of both of them. See the links in my Sig, and...

Hey Frank... thanks for the links. I completely agree with "moving your feet" to change the look. In this case, I really was going for the "vehicle in landscape" shot, and maybe this fits better in the landscape thread. The leading lines of the driveway and trees to the left are part of what I was trying to capture. That said, I may try cropping a couple different ways.

No. 1! BTW, IMHO, you want to keep the sky.
