Soul Dr. Loc: Beautiful Shenandoah Valley
 
As the title to one my favorite Neil Young songs suggests, this series of images I got last weekend proves that.
All were captured hand held with a Fuji X-T10 and 18-55mm f2.8-4 lens. These were all taken at a place in town, fenced in at about one acre.
This site has been like this for I don't know how long, but the stuff just sits here and slowly just rusts away.
Hope you like it and be sure to do the downloads.

I favor the close shots... Nothing like old gas pumps to bring back memories.

Nice study of rust. Mike and Frank call it "rusty gold". Merry Christmas.

Well, shot! The "Old Pipes" is my fav just because of the stark contrast of the rusted metal vs. the rotting wood in the background. Great compositions...

Thanks for your comments. Sometimes I feel like I need WD40 when I get up in the morning too.

Jeff, thanks for your comments. Close shots are some of my favorite kind of shooting.
I like finding something in a scene and bringing it out.
