This is a great shot. Appropriately titled also. Without showing much of the truck you've made it clear that this trucks days (and maybe a certain era) has passed us by.

Thanks for submitting to .

have a great day and keep the wonderful photos coming.

Love the tight shot of this. The two lamps above the plate seem to express a forborne or slightly depressed feeling to this piece, and of course that plays well with the title.

thanks a bunch. There are two photographic principles that are in direct opposition.   The first is move in close to your subject (and use the concept, of allowing a part to represent the whole).  The second, is back up... back WAAAAYYYY up.  Teaching these two concepts to students is a challenge, because they see them as direct opposites and sometimes they get confused.  And I am not sure I am always successful in presenting the ideas.   Perhaps a better way to explain them would be... let the subject determine how close you are.  Not sure that is much better, but it is one of the things I have to work hard at explaining in my classes.

The wondrous thing about being a teacher is when you see that you've gotten through, whether one or many the personal satisfaction must be tremendous.

lol... did you hear about the old guy who went to the doctor?

The doctor looked in his ear and asked "why is there a suppository in you ear"  The old guy said,  I wondered why my hearing air wasn't working.  Now at least I know where I put it!!!

I really love this!  To me, it would be a great puzzle even!  Just because it is kind of unique.

WayneBenedet In reply to cybelemoon [2015-04-24 09:57:31 +0000 UTC]

thanks pam.  I think you are right, it would make a great puzzle, and could be a challenge to put together too.

cybelemoon In reply to WayneBenedet [2015-04-25 00:56:15 +0000 UTC]

I was also thinking how great it would look on one of those aged metal hanging pictures that they sell in some of the home decoration stores here and in the home deco section of Hobby Lobby here.  It's like a picture printed/transferred and then slightly aged on old metal hung with wire or even old can tabs.  I actually know how to do it.

WayneBenedet In reply to cybelemoon [2015-04-25 03:54:50 +0000 UTC]

It is one of the options that The Untapped Source offers me.  I have only ever done one of my dog. The rest of my work has been on canvas.  But I agree, an aged metal look would work very well

It would be a great father's day gift or just a gift for anyone for any reason.  Just really a neat idea!

I think this is one has potential Pam, and is one that I will make a single signed copy.  Other (unsigned) copies are available on my sales galley.

cybelemoon In reply to WayneBenedet [2015-05-04 08:02:53 +0000 UTC]

Well, the owner of the single signed copy will be a lucky one.  Where is your sales gallery, is it online?

WayneBenedet In reply to cybelemoon [2015-05-04 11:52:31 +0000 UTC]

the signed copy is available through Galleries here in Canada or directly from myself.  Unsigned copies are available online at www.theuntappedsource.com/wayn…
