Louisiana Tires
...love repetition at the best of times, however, finding these extra large scale tyres whilst walking the streets in Franklin, Louisiana was a shot I got so excited about.

socalgirl
Nice one. Not only are there lots of tires, they’re BIG too. Makes you wonder what’s on the other side of the house – a field of used truck cabs?
Ena Lü
BOOM! hit with the power of the repetitive tyre motif, love this lots :)
thanks Paul
Cora Wandel
What a sight to behold! Great shot, Paul, and humorous, I needed a little chuckle just now.

Makes for a rather unuasual garden fence, dosn’t it?
Love the world you bring to us :)
Rachel Davison
It’s stunning – love that waxen treatment and your cool tones…

There is a whole yard of monster trucks sitting on blocks somewhere…
Vasile Stan
Impressive rendition…the science of fractional beauty in the service of exquisite art.
Ronald Jore
Nicely seen and shot – the conventional surroundings give the image even more impact, as if those things got in there “by accident”... ;-)
Lisa Defazio
Instant smile!
Toy houses…..reminds me of the song from ‘Weeds’

i like how the crisp lines of the house are framed by the blurry background. The little section of the porch looks like you could walk on it.
Mel Brackstone
hmmm…..I’m going to have to chuck a bit of a wobbly if you keep showing us such fabulous scenes Paul…...I am SO jealous, of your location, your talent, and your ability to just make us feel like we are THERE!
Lisa Jewell
Oh this is so exciting….I would have been thrilled to have made such a discovery…
The super sized tyre treads leaning up against the horizontal lines of the weatherboard house….how frecking cool…
Robyn Lakeman
Love it! You find some really unusual sights overseas. I’m in Banff atm, just gorgeous. Looks like you’re loving it in the US

Soo Americannnnn
deepbluwater
what the heck are those tires doing there!! crazy Americans! yes, the repetition looks fantastic against the simple lines and angles of the house and the truck really gives a sense of the scale to those huge tires. You find the most interesting things on your walks! thanks for taking us along on your journey :)))

A ‘Magic of the Moment’ situation that ‘could only happen in America’ captured superbly with your usual finesse, Paul !!! Wonderful HDR and excellent composition, especially with the car and all those circles and angled tyres against the horizontal lines of the house and street !!
dimsim

I never get tired of your work Paul …
berndt2
cool image- it looks so everyday but for the crazy alternate-world white picket fence 8)
Mark Ross
Wonderfully odd image Paul! Your composition is so smart, in fact I immediately thought you had composited this one as it doesn’t look exactly real. But then I had to remember… look who did this, hehe! You must be so psyched when you travel Paul, so awake and feeling altogether thrilled when you find something unique as you are want to do. Love “seeing” what you “see.”
morpheus71
Excellent & random! You seem to have a lot of luck in finding strange stuff and a great talent in the way you capture it.
blamo
Reminds me of the car industry the wheels have come off…....................... Brilliant
butchart
exceptional tones paul…... i just have to keep looking at it to realize it’s a photograph… the truck in the foreground is out of this world…..... amazing eye you have…...... bravo…..........b
Pip Gerard
I can see why you got excited… tyre dominoes!! how fantastic!
Wow… you really do have a knack for finding the most incredible elements in your landscapes…. then the way you compose them or enhance them puts that extra special icing on the cake!
I think you have your camera eyes open wider than most others.
mikepaulhamus
what a capture, how cool to catch, excellent.
Tracey Mac
What an amazing 3D image…....excellent find…...delivered in your usual classy style
Anne McGinn
You know you’re a redneck when… you can’t walk on your sidewalk ‘cause its covered by massive monster truck tires…. great find. Ain’t the South Grand??
Michael Douglass

Gerijuliaj
I would not have been able to ignore it either Paul. It’s wonderful and exciting when a picture comes out of the blue..Fabulous shot – Look forward to seeing more pics from your trip.
Cathleen Taraw...
Delicious. Not something I’d normally use to describe tyres but there you go.
Wendi Donaldson
Awesome shot…..amazing find!!!
Tordo
Nice finding and nice shot.
Craig Watson
brilliantly composed… well done!
Von McKnelly
I too would have shared the excitement of such a find…like a little kid I would have been all over those big fun looking toys.
Joanne Bradley
The visual contrast between the suburban home and the oversized industrial tires is incredible! And as always I just love your classic vintage style treatment giving even more weight to the juxtaposition of two opposing forces, life in the suburbs and industrilization. The texture of the tires is so sublime, I can smell the rubber…
natalia martin...
Great work! I love how you’ve processed it. The tones are amazing, what a wonderful light!
Mark Hayward
Absolutely BRILLIANT find Paul!...beautifully worked image.
linaji
HOW BRILL.. the series of the homespun town.. what goes around,,, some cones and some tires and some light poles to see ones way through,
because you,
see more
than meets the eye.
KiwiAna
LOL! Wonder where all the tractors are? John dear… Um sharp processing and colours as always.
Darren Burdell
Wonderful composition and this has the trademark PV style running al the way through it.
Malin Nordlund
Love the composition and the sense of scale!
Rosemary Scott
HA!! perhaps it’s a fence…... They obviously like it big in Louisiana!
Karen Scrimes
This is just divine Paul. Your processing is perfect and unique. Any chance of posting a tutorial on how you achieve this glorious effect?
cheers
Karen
Ranald
Well spotted Paul. The tread on the tyres is a good contrast with the regularity of the boarding on the house. And also with the size of those on the SUV!
