Afternoon Delight
Taken up in the Snowy Mountains, this gem of a wreck sits along a dirt road near a sheep station, the afternoon sun bathes the scene in a beautiful red glow just as the sun is about to slip away on the horizon. At this time of the year the light on this truck is unchanged for weeks. It is just the clouds in background that will change this setting.

Thanks… this one is a personal favorite. You could honestly spend weeks shooting this truck in all sorts of angles and light that falls on it. A real gem of a find. It is amazing what you can find when you go off the road and down the beaten track.

Matt, what time of year was this taken pls? I wish all afternoons looked like this. An instant fav. You have a great portfolio too.
Matt Lauder replied
Elana pretty sure it is taken in Summer due to the dryness of the grass.

I’ve always wanted to use old wrecks like these in my photos but have never found one in such a perfect position as this – to catch the light like it does – to have that look of desperation. Nice Matt
