    Alternate truck use

    Driving to/from my usual duck hunting area, there is a farm that decorates their old trucks to reflect the season. A month or so ago, I posted these trucks with their "summer" decor. Today I was out and saw they had changed them to their "fall harvest" decor. I couldn't resist stopping and snagging a few shots. I love these old trucks and would rather see them on the road, but, this is a very creative use of the ones that aren't going to run again.

    Thanks John & Frank. I think the orange pumpkins kind of clash with the red truck, but, I'm no fashion expert.

    All nice shots, Brian...I only have one nit -- the first shot needs a little bit of cropping at the bottom, like, too much bottom or road that doesn't contribute much to anything but wet asphalt...

    Aw....I like them all. I can't have favourites. It is not allow tonight...(pssttt...I like #2. the colours matches the whole frame.)

    These are a very nice new take on still life. My only problem is that I don't like pumpkin.

    Just for you, Izzie. I think I like your suggestion to crop a little off the bottom to keep the focus on the truck. Man! I hate admitting when someone else is right!
