    Since the last time I was here, I have retired. I am spending my time now traveling the back roads searching out interesting items to photograph for my photo archives, I guess you could say that is my collection. I get off the roads, knock on doors, peak in sheds and barns, check out the brush, woods, and gullies. People for the most part are receptive to my inquiries, however, I do get refused on occasion.
    Here is an interesting item I found this year sitting next to a shed along with all the junk. I really like this piece, it would look so great blasted, painted, and restored to original.
    The initials you see is my watermark, as I have had several photos stolen on the internet, with the people claiming they took the photo. I love for my photos to be shared, just give credit where it is due.

      Thank you very much for the kind words Mani. Thank you official, jonima, and van, I guess you could say I am getting over my disagreement with CW.

      I know, Mani, you are correct. Heck, it only took me about a year to get over it....
    7. Manikin Manikin, 11 years ago

      WELCOME BACK you old buzzard. About time you found your way home. If you like taking pictures of old tired out stuff.....I will pose for a price :) I always enjoy and appreciate looking at your posts.

      Fhrjr2, first off, that would be “Mr. Old Buzzard” too you, sir.
      Second, I am afraid I cannot accept your offer to pose for a photograph, as I like my subjects to be interesting and aesthetically pleasing.
      With that said, thank you, and it is good to see you again also, my friend....
