Spurned | January 31, 2009
At first glance, this is a rather staid image. Believe me, I know. I stared at it for sometime; and that's when it got interesting. The light was harsh but it was a rare day with low humidity. The more I studied this photo I began to understand why I shot it.
It was all about the composition of those wonderfully erratic shapes and perspectives. From the deteriorating awning leading back to the chimneys to the triangular shadow connecting with the angle of the truck's fifth wheel; things just connected. And I saw it. I felt good that day.

- Hey...I like those prices:-)
Love the image. It's very fitting for the world economy. Makes a great statement. I see he's running without a load.
sherri @ February 01, 2009 - I think its about the typography too. Being a bit of a font freak its the first thing I'm drawn to. Do you know the work of Ed Ruscha?
RHYS @ February 01, 2009 - Fascinating. At first glance, it appears to be a random snapshot of nothing. But the bright orange of the truck and the red and blue of the gas station keep the eye interested and then the slow decay in progress throughout the photograph becomes noticeable. Nice shot.
