Bruce Wilson thought on 4/7/2001 that this photo was good and added the following:
"South Dakota, due to the extremely flat land here, has the most wonderful evening light. Rich in color but still quite bright, the light just before sunset is the photographers 'majical 20 minutes'. Take a juned old tractor, wait for the light, and you get a pretty-good picture." 3418

Bruce Wilson thought on 4/7/2001 that this photo was 'interesting' and added the following:
"I've always liked this shot, even thought there is a focus problem, and a slight imbalance in the composition. The light that afternoon was perfect, though. Shot outside the Madison SD Prarie Village antique tractor pull and all-around good time, this was the preparation for the ploughing contest. The train in the mid-gound is an old Arco switcher (about 1000 HP) that pulled four cards full of passengers around the site. The silos in the background are a nice reminder we are in the prarie. The shot could be fixed had I waited another moment for the engine to move about eight more feet, creating a line from the silos, thrjought the cab of the engine, to the head of the farmer. And closing down the shutter would have fixed the focus problem. Maybe next time." 3136

Bruce Wilson thought on 4/6/2001 that this photo was displayed properly and added the following:
"This is snow by the side of a dirt road. The grass just didn't stand out enough in the photo. Had I done this on sheet film I would have given in N+2 development to enhance the contrast. This is also underexposed a stop." 3414

Bruce Wilson of Brookings SD thought on 4/6/2001 that this photo was good and added the following:
"Shot last Fall, I still think this is a Spring picture. Maybe it's the woman's dress." 3021

Bruce Wilson thought on 4/6/2001 that this photo was blah and added the following:
"...er, that should have said, "the ground is still too wet to leave the pavement."" 3309

Bruce Wilson thought on 4/5/2001 that this photo was okay and added the following:
"This picture was shot the last week of February, 2000. Can you believe the difference this year? The second week of April and the snow is just thawing. The ground is still to we to leave the pavement. This is the city park in Bushnell, just East of Brookings." 3309

Bruce Wilson of Brookings SD thought on 4/5/2001 that this photo was superb and added the following:
"Shot at the Estelline SD Quarry north of town. It's one of my only surreal pictures. I call it "Still-life with Front-end Loader". I did not fix a slight blue tint the photo got when I scanned it." 3905
