Dreaming of Better Days

It is pretty obvious by now that, when the opportunity arises, I love to photograph abandoned, dilapidated or antique stuff. Buildings, cars, farm equipment etc., anything with some character appeals to me.

I came across this 1961 International Harvester panel truck and could not resist the urge to visit it at night and spend some time with it to listen to its stories of when it was young and strong, driving down the highways doing its duty, to its eventual demise and undignified end.

Maybe making an image of something like that is a way for me to come to grips with the fact that I too will pass.

I just hope that I won't be dumped in an arroyo....
