Artist's Comments

While taking pictures on this yard, I met a very interesting farmer and had a long visit.

One of the concerns he highlighted was vandalism to old vehicles like this. While I had not run across it up until that point myself, a couple of weeks later I went back to another vehicle that I have photographed a few months ago. When I got there, I discovered that someone had broken the headlights and the windshield. Because of this foolishness, a well preserved old vehicle is not totally open to the elements, and will likely deteriorate very quickly. I will post a couple of images of this vandalized vehicle in the next few weeks.

Vandalism is something inexplicable for me...Is it a manifestation of dark forces inside humans... or just a traces of childish features...(most of chidren break their first toys before they learn to play with them)...
Nice picture Wayne!

thanks Olga,

I guess in reality I am not so pure in myself. As a younger person, I must admit that I did beak a few things that should have been left alone. Not proud of it, and in the process i think I learned to have more respect. Still don't understand why, and maybe that is the same here.

"Seeing" the unusual...EVERY DAY

Although it is a very interesting vehicle my eye keeps wandering to the bright patch of dirt to the left of it. It also seems like the composition is weighted a little to heavily in the center of the frame. I think a crop would take care of both things and draw a little more attention to the house running out the right side of the frame which I think adds a lot to this picture. It makes me wonder: did the person come here and never leave allowing there vehicle to deteriorate from disinterest and disuse?

I love the colors, sad about the way the truck was treated.

thank you Alberto, I really appreciate your support.

I also like your comment. I would never have seen it in that light. I always amazes me how people see things differently, and I think that is one of the reasons I post.

have a good weekend.
