Is this bucket a special use bucket, or can any bucket be used like this. Looks like it would be useful for ditch clean out.

Can't be sure from the pic but it just looks to be curled all the way down to me.

I think the bucket is casting a shadow, and giving it a long tapered look. It's just rolled completely forward.

that bucket is hidding from doing any work. It feels it allready dug enough and is on strike.

My bucket will only rotate from level, to about 30 degrees up, and to 45 degrees down. Otherwise 75 degree range.

I also think most of what you see is shadow, and is just fully dumped.

Couple of observations though, I don't think mine dumps that far either.
Also those do look like extra long curl cylinders.
And by the look of the bucket pin configuration, it almost does look like you could swap it around.

I really can't think of any good application for a bucket like that myself.

I tried to adjust the pic but it didn't help much, you have to kinda imagine where the bucket outline would be.

What can you tell us about your pic? Something you took a picture of? Your bucket? Not your pic?

Seems there is a story behind this, and maybe you know what it is. :)

I think most of it the shadow of the bucket on the ground but I did not think you can curl the bucket almost 270 degrees, is the bucket multi-jointed?

As far as cleaning up ditches the pic below shows a better method perhaps. It was posted by one of the members (Jinman may be ??)some time in the back. I suppose you can get the tractor 90 degrees to a ditch send the box blade in, angle how you need, dig, and pull the dirt right up to the edge or beyond.

JC,
