Lovely use of light here, Martina. The yellow of that weed flower really pops out in the foreground.

I do so much like abandoned equipment. This sort of farm equipment reminds me of my childhood growing up in country NSW.

Julie, believe me, it is very hard around here to take a shot with only a single (!) dandelion in the frame, ;-). Abandoned stuff - chairs, vehicles, tools, tires, crates, bottles ... I do not really know what's so fascinating about them, perhaps it is because they seem to tell a whole life's story? Perusing Plumbing the Deeps ... another whole life's story ... .

I note another dandelion picture up ahead ... abandoned stuff is adorable ...

You English is impeccable and you spell tyres with an i ... are you from America? Canada?

Julie, "tyre vs. tire" is the result of eight years of English at secondary school in Germany. I did not even know about the spelling with y ;-) and just learned, that tyre is BE and tire AE - so ... so my English might be a little mixed up. And German is my mother tongue. Tonight my internet connection is mixed up too so perhaps I will not answer your other comment but will instead try posting a photo - hopefully it will work.
