I sit here and look out over this world. Disturbed I am by what I see. I had a dream once. A dream where all creatures got along, where respect and honor was strong. Where helping the weaker and less fortunate was not a favor but an Honor. Where one could speak his language with no fear of ridicule. Where one did not have to put on a mask or costume to fit in.I sit here and feel I am so far away and drifitng each day. There is anger in me that I have tried to keep in but everyday when I come up here and look out there it is rekindled. I see the ones searching and wanting to let go but out of fear they stay chained in their own prison. Not fear of failure, but out of fear of what the mass may think of them. I see the ones that want to fight but are not willing to join the fight because if the battle is lost, what will happen to them then. Time is being wasted like it will always be there, but it is slowly going by. Soon the gift of time will be the burden of wasted years. I may come back up here again, but right now I really do not want to. I think my anger is calling for me to take flight and keep searching for them, I feel so far away.

From my interior series… Driving around town today I came upon and old tattered and abandoned Jeep. Wore out and tired she is now a home for the little critters.

Location: Rubicon Trail in the Eldorado National Forest / Technique: HDR / Workflow: 6+ Raws – Matix Pro – Finalized in Cs2 / Equipment: Canon 5d – 17-40mm Wide Featured in Group: / “All Trucks” – April 8, 2009 Gentlemen was nice enough to allow me to shoot his truck and offer my Bra’s & I sum beers. The famous “Rubicon Trail” starts at the base of Loon Lake off of Ice House Rd and can take You all the way up to Lake Tahoe. All types of vehicles (Mainly Jeeps) go 4 wheeling here because of the Large flat Granite rock face. And ofcourse an abundant amount of boulders to drive over makes it more fun!

Before the era of television and other distractions, paniolo also serenaded their neighbors, bringing music and companionship to far-flung communities. Paniolo music was and is vocal, songs accompanied by guitar and/or `ukulele, stringed instruments whose portability is well-suited to cowboy life. Guitars arrived with the Mexican vaquero, while `ukulele developed later from the Portuguese branguiha brought by immigrants in 1879. Guitar playing grew a uniquely Hawaiian style called kiho`alu or slack-key. Open tuning of the strings produced a specific chord when the instrument was strummed. Some standard slack-key tunings are called taro patch, wahine and maunaloa. Other original tunings – more openly shared nowadays – were carefully guarded family secrets among older generations. Originally, slack-key guitar always accompanied song lyrics. Today it is often performed as a solo instrumental. The paniolo’s other instrument was his voice. Leo ki`eki`e or falsetto singing may have come from the Mexican falsetto tradition of the Vera Cruz area. It also had antecedents in ancient Hawaiian chant. Yodeling – later a popular element in country-western music – made an early appearance in paniolo songs. Church hymns strongly influenced paniolo harmonies. Paniolo songs document and celebrate ranch life. Always composed in the Hawaiian language, they portray personalities, events, work activities and special places. “Wiomina” tells of the 1908 rodeo in Cheyenne, Wyoming. “Me Ka Nani a `o Kaupo” describes Kaupo Ranch on Maui. A round-up of wild cattle is the subject of “Pu`uhuluhulu” and “Ku`u Hoa Hololio” talks about the partnership between a paniolo and his horse. Many songs use kaona, the veiled or metaphoric meaning of words so common to ancient chant and poetry. As an example, “Ne`ene`e Mai a Pili” is on one level about horseback riding, but the motions and emotions can also be understood as a description of lovemaking. Paniolo music is a folksong tradition with compositions passed on orally. Many songs have come to us passed down through families. While most songs were composed and played by paniolo themselves, composers like Charles E. King, Marcus Shutte and Sol K. Bright also wrote songs about paniolo although they were not cowboys themselves. While ranching has dwindled as an activity on the Islands, paniolo traditions live on. Singers like Sonny Chillingworth, Kindy Sprout and others perform and record the rich paniolo legacy.” Quote Text by hawaiihistory.org Canon EOS DIGITAL REBEL XTi / Shooting Date/Time 12 May 2009 17:23:51 / Shooting Mode Aperture-Priority AE / Tv 1/15 Av 6.3 Partial Metering ISO 100 / Lens EF28-135mm f/3.5-5.6 IS USM / Focal Length 28.0 mm
An old Jeep Pickup Truck abandoned and left to rot away, as found in High Point, N.C.
This was one of several trucks sitting at an abandoned piece of land near my home. There is just something I love about abandoned decaying vehicles, though they may only be machines they were a part of someones daily life at some point in time but now they remain dormant, silently decaying a little more year by year. The last time this truck was on the highway was about 1989 according the the inspection sticker on the drivers side of the windshield.

Willys (Light 4×4 Utility ) In 1939 the U.S. Army invited between 135 and 165 companies to submit proposals within 75 days for a new military vehicle to replace its aging fleet of motorcycles and Ford Model T trucks. Only three companies responded: Ford Motor Company, Willys-Overland, and American Bantam Car Company. The initial contract went to Bantam, but their vehicle proved to be a failure under rigorous testing. New prototypes were then ordered from the other two companies. Willys ultimately won the contract in July 1941. Ford agreed to build from Willys’ plans and Bantam built trailers for the Willys vehicle. The Ford entrant in the design competition was called the “GP,” which in Ford parlance stood for “Government 80 inch wheelbase Reconnaissance Car.” (Willys called their design the “MB.”) When slurred, “GP” led to the name “jeep,” which stuck to the small four-wheel-drive vehicle even though the Willys design actually won the competition and Ford ended up building the Willys design. Some sources mention the meaning of GP to stand for ‘General Purpose’, a term designated as a specification for the Army-based requirement. The Willys Jeep was powered by a four-cylinder engine that could run at 4,000rpm for straight hours of operation. The transmission was a three-speed manual, with a four-wheel-drive transfer case with high and low gears. The vehicle also featured a fold-up cloth roof. The Jeep could run on-road at 60mph, climb a 40-degree slope, achieve a turning radius of 30 feet, and tilt up to 50 degrees to either side without the vehicle tipping over. It could even run under water with special attachments for air intake and exhaust. Following the World War Two, public demand was so high that Willys continued producing the Jeep in tremendous numbers, re-designated as the “CJ-2A” (“CJ” for “Civilian Jeep”). The vehicle was produced for the Army in continually improved versions until 1981, when it was replaced by the High Mobility Multipurpose Wheeled Vehicle (aka – the “Hummer”). Over 350,000 Jeeps were built to fight in World War II. The Willys assembly line turned out one Jeep every 90 seconds. The Jeep would go on to see combat duty in the Korean War as well as the Vietnam War in all degrees of conduct. Official Jeep designations during the war were Willys MA, Ford GP, Willys MB and Ford GPW. The Willys company would go on to produce over 363,000 whilst the Ford Motor Company produced over 280,000 jeep-types during the war.
