The wide open spaces are fantastic...I like the vehicle in the middle of the frame. It makes a statement!

I can't say it any better than bluechameleon.
The sky begins to look threatening...will the Flea Market happen rain or shine? :-)

Always a white box somewhere. The contrast adds to the atmosphere.

"And for the first time, he wished to be far away. Lost in a deep, vast country where nobody knew him. Somewhere without language or streets. He dreamed about this place without knowing its name." (Sam Shepard)
Blows my mind, Grant. I love the loneliness, the grain, the sky & the wide opened cpuntry view. It's great, simply great! All the best & safe travels, Fritsch.

cool- in the minimal sense, there is a silent magnetic attraction to the van.

This is interesting. You set the main part more or less right in the middle, and it makes a great effect here. Well done!

Great composition, like the angle the road makes across this image and leads the eye to the van and the wide open space. Stunning and powerful sky, great contrast with the landscape.

Gotta be either pre flea market or, more likely, post flea market. In any event it is a fine image Grant!

Really gives a feel for your area. Really nice.

I like the lines of the road and tree line rushing into the distance and the white van anchoring the whole scene. And of course your b/w is wonderful...
