Long Gone

Posted by Denise (Duncannon, United States) on 26 April 2009 in Transportation and Portfolio.

I have passed by this "truck" for years and have always wanted to take a shot at it. Today , with my husband's encuragement I did. It sits along 11/15 in Central Pennsylvania.

Photography is my relaxing hobby and provides me with inspiration about the beauty that surrounds each and every one of us, never take it for granted! If you like my photos please comment and let me know what I need to do to improve myself, definitely room for that....

A well presented icon from the past. Thnaks to your husband for encouraging you. One should always go with their gut feelings.

The earth always ultimately reclaims its garbage.

@john4jack: That it does, the problem is we put too much "difficult" stuff back into it. Thanks for your comment.

Ronnie 2¢ from London, United Kingdom

Can't see stuff like this without thinking that it was someone's pride and joy once . . wash and polish and check the oil and tires . . kinda sad.

@Ronnie 2¢: Oh, how I agree, I think like that especially when I see decaying old homes....

Bill from Belton, United States

Bob may be back to reclaim his truck at some point! Great capture Denise.

@Bill: YEah, I am wondering who Bob is. PRobably the long lost love of some young girl feeling the need to transcribe a piece of her history for others to read.
