Description
Driving around in the Galena area we came across this unexpected site: the rusted out husk of an old car covered in multiple colors - either from rust or from paint - sitting by itself in a mown field between two trees.

Beautiful photo of an old, rusted car parked in a carefully maintained lawn of grass, with great colors, perspective, and composition, Joni! F/L

Wow this is such a wonderful photo of that old car Joni!!! There was one just like it in my grandparents yard for years and years!!! For all I know it is still there in the woods!!! LF
Joni Eskridge replied:
Thanks so much, Marvin. Loved finding this old car. Glad to bring back childhood memories! Thanks for the visit, Marvin. Always appreciated.

This image makes me smile! It appears to be an intended decoration.
Joni Eskridge replied:
Me too, Phyllis. The placement on a well-cared-for lawn would seem to indicate a deliberateness about it - which is amusing, because there's no house close by. But it sure made my day!
Debra Martz
Great find, capture and composition between the trees!
Joni Eskridge replied:

Joan Carroll
