    Final Resting Place......

    I took a little stroll through a used equipment dealers lot one day last week and found a number of items that this is probably their final resting place. Never do something like this without a camera in hand. I'm betting you have a few images around like these. Feel free to post them up here.

    Don't forget about the Gallery. Are your photos there??

    Nice set of images Larry. I really need to get out and shoot some more. I know there are tons of images out there I'm missing.

    I think you have a very good eye to be able to find such good images in a junk yard.
    Keep Shooting!

    Re: Final Resting Place......

    Thanks guys! These are some of the very simple things that are out there just waiting for us to come along with a camera. Certainly not great or inspired work, but something to shoot until that wonderful photo op just flings itself in front of your camera.

    I like this older stuff as well, but I'll have to see if I have something more to share. Here's something quick.

    Nice PC. I had gone to this location with the intent purpose of finding some gears like the ones you posted. I never came up with any so I settle for what I got. I'm still looking though, they can make for some great compositions.

    Wow I could have a ball at a place like this. Some very cool shots here and they sure fit the mold for this thread.

    Your right a little different take here, but they do fit the thread title. Love that first one!
