Title: An Open Door Policy
Post by: Chris Calohan on March 25, 2016, 11:52:59 pm

I did a whole series of shots at the "Rust in Peace," truck graveyard. This and Shattered Dreams are my two favorites.

Shattered Dreams is good, but I really like this one, Chris. It's simple and yet, at a different level when you really look, complex. And the color and tone are just right.

This one is also very interesting like "Shattered Dreams".

I've come back to this one repeatedly, and am more impressed each time. You turned a graveyard into a goldmine. One of the best images I've seen in a while.

Thank, Arlen and everyone for the kind comments. I've spent three days at this location so far and just barely scratched the surface as to what can be gathered amongst these poor old rusting Fords. Later today, I will post the series I have thus far. This particular image has been printed three times on different surfaces with metal topping all three. On the last image on metal, I've added a door handle I obtained from another old ford...it's getting interesting  :o
