    We had a big parade in town this weekend, took an hour end to end, and being a fairly rural area there were lots of tractors in the parade. I really like the Allis Chalmers, I'd never seen one before.

    All taken with the D80 and 18-200 VR.

    Excellent series John! That is the first Allis Chalmers that I have seen like that. It looks to be a good restoration job on it. I remember well the old John Deer 2 cylinder tractors plowing in the fields when I was a boy.

    Thanks guys, it was a fun parade. They look a bit over exposed to me too, it was very bright yesterday - it's the PNW I'm used to shooting under gray skys, that's my story and I'm sticking to it! :biggrin:

    Usually I have -.3 dialed in, I don't rememeber why I set it back to 0...live and learn!
