Description
Relic Of The Past...An abandoned truck covered in rust and moss at McLean Creek Mill sits idle. A once useful and powerful machine has been brought to its knees by time and Mother Nature...Vancouver Island gets a lot of rain during parts of the year and along with the rain comes the rust and the moss. I have always wanted to find a vehicle such as this and now my dream has come true...Old things matter to me. I have always loved items, such as cars, that have aged through time. Rust and signs of wear tell an interesting story if you let them. Where did that "dent" come from? What is behind that "tear in the upholstery? New things are cool too...Their story will be about them aging. To find these old cars and trucks on Vancouver Island is like finding treasure for me...I hope you will enjoy my images as much as I had taking and processing them...Cheers Bob
