...and after twenty years, still has air in it's tires. Left to rust and rot in a used up sand pit along with another truck up in the woods, that were stripped of all the usable trees, property sold, and off to the next site to desecrate..... and we put a hunting season on the deer ???

You did a fine job on the postwork and the presentation of this one. Man should be ashamed of himself for this kind of waste to mother nature. Tigs♥ =^..^=

Nature in all her glory is my uplift on life and so is my love of photography. sandi ♪ ♫

I like the angle of the truck & with all the rust one can tell it's been in the same spot for a very long time. I'm amazed the tires are still holding air plus I wonder what kind of stories this old truck holds. The snow is the perfect contrast for the rusty truck. Excellent capture Doug.

I agree on the angle, it makes this photo POP. What a great find. I see a lot of old trucks left to die in the fields in Missouri.

Very nice work with the colors especially, Doug. Just enough "revive color" and maybe one shot of negative saturation? It's a well balanced composition taken under less than perfect conditions. I have a suspicion that you have your back up against a creek or a bear because it seems that the shot needs just a drop of foreground, as the crop cuts right through the tire. Great angle and wonderful contrast.

I'm not afraid of dying. I just don't want to be there when it happens.

That old bow tie looks like it has been rode hard and put away wet. The work ethic of this old truck shows up in every dent and scratch. Well done Doug!
