Nocturnal Life of an Abandoned Tractor
There it sits, the night sky turning overhead, the sun baking it in the daytime, rain showering it occasionally, nobody giving it a second glance anymore.
Except me and my friend Greg.
On this second visit we freed it from its dressing of tumbleweeds to make it more presentable.
Then we started taking our shots, blue hour at first, then out came the flashlight before we waited for the Milky Way to have risen enough to arch over our new friend.
It had a hard life, that's why I wanted to honor it
I wonder how many years it already spent observing the stars and how many will follow.
It could very well be sitting there long after I'm gone.
Update: Actually, it sat in this spot for only a little over a year as of August '25. It sat someplace else before they dragged it over to its current spot. I'm sure you were dying to know that..
