The Old and The Elder, colour

Description

i took this photo this summer, for a contest titled "3rd age". in italy we call 3rd age people aged over 60/65.
since i wasn't able to take good photos of old people, i decided to look for something different that could give the idea of old age without being a person.
i finally came to this, with a 40+ years old bike (the old) leant against a 500+ years old olive tree (the elder). in this photo i also wanted to show that sometimes the elder is able to support the younger more than one could think.

i'd really like you to tell me what you think about this.

as suggested by many of you, i slightly modified this image.
i cropped a little bit on the right side, i removed the bricks from the back and i added a white frame.
now it's far better, indeed: you were very right :)
thanks for your cooperation.
the b&w version of this image will follow soon.
