I love that old truck. The patterns in the paint look amazing in black and white!

Definitely a case that worked better in black and white, although the color isn’t bad either.

All of these photos are beautiful! But I think the beach photo is my favorite – it definitely embodies “alone” and keeps all the wonderful textures of the beach. Lovely 🙂

Hi Cee and everybody friends…
I taken this shot just 2 two days ago. Probably someone has already seen on my blog, I think is perfect for the theme “alone”…

I love photographing park benches, so I really like that one. It definitely looks abandoned to the elements.
Here’s mine. In sepia, since it’s part of the abandoned west.

It was out in the country with flat tires and parked beside a barn. I bet it does work though or could easily be restored to run.
