Sophomore Effort


(All pics. snapped on 3/06/11 - using an iPhone and Instagram filters)

The pictures seen here, were taken on my second visit to this phenomenal junk car graveyard...


...and unlike the time before, it was a cool and rainy, grey day...


...and - I'd brought someone along to explore the property, and take snaps of the cars with his phone.


My partner in crime, was a 12 year old boy - one of my son's best friends, as well as the son of one of my best friends...


...also the person completely responsible for bringing this place to my attention.


Despite the foul weather, it was a most pleasant outing - and because of the low light and the fact that they were wet - the cars really popped in the pictures that we took. 


The boy and I have been dabbling in iPhone/Instagram photography - for roughly the same amount of time, and so for me to even suggest that I am mentoring him, or taking him under my wing or what have you - would be a mighty sophomoric thing to say.


Just because there's a 30 year age gap between us, doesn't mean that I have more ability than he has...


In fact...after watching him in action, and upon reviewing his pics. - I'd bet that he's taught me more, than vice versa...
