This is an old Army
truck which was purchased and used for farm work over
the years. It had been out of use for evidently
quite a long period of time when I found and
photographed it. I photographed this old truck many
times before I finally got the image I was trying to
capture from the start. I used the Toyo GX view
camera with the 240mm Schneider lens to expose this
image on Fuji Velvia 4x5 transparency film. Over
the last year I have printed this image on three
different papers before finding the one that works with
this print. There is an unspoken character old
veterans who have now been retired. I believe it
is this quality which makes these old trucks so beloved
to so many. A special beauty indeed ... |
