There is something about abandoned vehicles that draws me to them.
The patina of rust, faded paintwork and gap-toothed grills. Seats sagging with the imprint of miles driven. Slumping tires, slowly wheezing air from a past age. Stories left unwritten, tales of near misses, places visited and lives changed that can now only be imagined.
Slowly nature coddles their once solid form in its creeping embrace, as if to trap and eventually devour.
