Headlight
by Fremiet

This is a headlight belonging to an old truck, one of a group of six or seven left to rot in a field off a rural highway in New Hampshire. What struck me about this particular image is the way the spider web appears to be pulling the rim off the light. I am setting up a gallery of truck portraits from this group and will post the URL here when I've finished it this weekend, I hope....F

Very nice composition, John, and the spiderweb adds just the right touch. Helen

The closer detail with the web tells more of the story of age than the full shot...very demonstrative photo and perfect for the theme.

Nicely seen, John. Even the spider's web seems abandoned!

I almost wrote the exact same thing as Katherine...oh well--guess I'll go ahead anyways. I love the composition, colors, and that cobweb! --Melanie
