    Default Retirement

    While out at dawn in Paso Robles I couldn't go by this old truck without stopping. The sun was up, but hadn't crested the hill yet and so the light was still subdued.

    I also love the look of the old abandoned vehicles, be it cars, trucks, farm equipment, whatever. Especially if some colour and rust is involved.
    This would be perfect if you could get some close-ups without getting yourself in trouble, that is.
    Reality is a nice place to visit, but I wouldn't want to live there!

    Really like this with all the foreground grasses and the colours of the truck are great!

    Thanks guys. I didn't trespass although I wanted to. Commuting is remarkably early in farm country and even though this road was remote, I didn't want to attract undue attention.

    truck humor.
    nice.


    I don't really know the make since I didn't get too close to it. Could be. Was cool just to be out in Paso Robles at that time of day so the truck was a bonus.
