Back Window

Gallery: POP PhotosPosted March 21, 20131,965 views4 comments

The Union Gap (Washington) Agriculture Museum has a trucks' row section. All are old vehicles in less than operable condition, BUT the patina (a/k/a rust and peeling paint)is wonderful for photos. This is the back window of an International. I'm not sure of the year. (There are also 100s of old farm machinery, etc.

Canon 40D; Canon EF-S18-200IS;400ISO;1/640; in camera sharpness 4, contrast 1, saturation 2 and WB set on landscape.

Sounds like a fun place to visit for unique shots. Hope you have more and this mirror could be older than me, but probably not

All the best and well done.

This is a great abstract !!

We figured it for the back window of a Volkswagon '59 bug, rusted out. But since they had seven layers of dipped rust coat on the body, that would be improbable. The back window of an International is much more plausible.

I really like the diagonal in this along with the color contrast. GREAT abstract !!!

You have a good eye. Nice angle and really interesting texture from the patina and the lighting.

Framed tight, it became an abstract of color. I never would have guessed what it actually was.
