About

These trucks are just sitting in the back of a sawmill that is about to be demolished...and no doubt so will these trucks.

I felt they deserved one last stand....a stand for pride...a stand for history. They have worked hard and deserved to be remembered. Without them the place would not have been so successful. In my opinion, I am not sure if the one on the left will have the same fate...but all I was told, was everything had to be gone.

Excellent, Judi. Most dramatic sky and the low perspective is very effective in this shot.

This is a supurb capture, Judi. A real rough feel to it, and dramatic sky.

Power comes across in this image... the sky, the lighting, the contrast and saturation, the perspective, all contribute to this sense, and capture well the world in which these trucks 'lived'.

That sky could not be more perfect for this shot, Judi. How appropriate that the dark and foreboding sky is overlooking their last stand.

A very dramatic shot, Judi, with the dark, ominous sky in the background. I like the perspective on this very much! It makes the picture for me. Great presentation. Larry

So Cal Photograhper   {K:18529} 8/12/2005
The ground in the foreground and the dark cloudy skies above give you a sense of the power these trucks had in their better days. Really like the look of the two black borders around them - adds to the overall feeling of strenght of this image. Wait, I think I hear them now blowing their horns. They love it!

Thanks Liz. Yes, I agree. It was very eerie to walk around there that day, taking photos of what will soon be nothing. It was as if all the ghosts of years past were watching.

Very strange.

Very dramatic judi....the angle you used makes the trucks look very imposing....very well captured....like the sky and the colours, adds a great deal of mood and sombreness...so sad to think that they will be junked....(my dad used to drive these)

Giulio Rotelli Giulio Rotelli   {K:28441} 8/12/2005
Dopo aver letto la tua introduzione, devo dire che il cielo con i suoi tono cosě minacciosi, rafforza il senso di desolazione per quello che sarŕ il destino di questi truck. Li vedo quasi come esseri viventi, che una volta svolto il loro compito, sono abbandonati a loro stessi e aspettano in silenzio la loro fine..
:-(
Grande foto ( come smpre )

Thanks Carolyn. They were sitting in a sawmill that is getting demolished. So they will, no doubt, be demolished with the mill. I thought they deserved one last stand....for history.

The dramatic sky and the fabulous lighting really allow these trucks to shine and gives them a sense of power. Exceptional quality in the overall composition.

Remarkable!

Another one for my favorites, dear Judi. The deep colors of the sky are a magnificent background for the trucks.
Thank you for your very kind comments on my "Sunstripes", "Pink" and especially "Red."
Best regards,

Thanks Gyorgy. I haven't applied much to this image. The sky is from the same time and location but different exposure blended in with the lighter version to show the details of the foreground. Then a curves adjustment and resize/borders.

It was an incredible sky for capturing these machines, that I had to get the best of them both.
