Paul’s endlessly fascinating junkyard. October 2012. Lit by full moon and Protomachine flashlight.
M3A1 Scout Car
In February 2011 I wrangled night access to the Military Vehicle Technology Foundation, one of the largest private collections of military vehicles in the world. WWII-vintage M3A1 Scout Car. Lit with flashlights in a totally dark space.
Interstellar Overdrive
So many fans of the Tatra! I dig these obscure Czech luxury cars too. Here’s another one of the same 2-603 II. Protomachine flashlight set to red and purple. Done as a workshop demo.
The Other Split Window
A Tatra 2-603 II , A “Lemony Snicket” movie prop car at Paul’s Junkyard. Protomachine flashlight set to red and green.
Budget Rock Showcase
Seldom seen rear view of the Mummies Ambulance at Paul’s Junkyard. Devo fans! Red and white LED flashlight.
Junkyard Frankenstein
Heat lightning over Paul’s Junkyard. This part of the yard is totally different now, all the vehicles you see here, except the fuel truck, disappeared into the shredder last winter.
The Ghost of White Trash, Past
Protomachine flashlight set to lime, purple and white. 94 seconds at 2:50 AM. This is pretty much straight out of the camera. A little burn on her eyes and crop to 4:5 and that’s it.
The Devil’s Coachman
104-second exposure. All hand-held light sources, strobe and flashlight. That’s an unbelievably uncomfortable Dave Evans in the mask, laying on broken glass. A little compositing and cloning was required.
The Purple Merge
4-minute exposure, full moon. Blended red-orange, purple and white Protomachine flashlight. Minor Photoshop composite too.
