Mackleson's Old Truck_109:365

This is another photo from our visit to Lake Winnipeg. This old truck was owned by a family my mother-in-law knew years ago. The family name is on the door . . . Mackleson. An abandoned truck bringing back memories of long ago.
Most excellent capture of a rustic vehicle!

Oh, boy, I bet it could tell some stories. Nicely captured.

Nice capture, would be great to do this lovely old truck up to it's former glory.

The idyllic scene.

Love the tones and textures on the truck and the way it's framed by the tree.

What a great old truck. It would be wonderful to see it restored to its former glory.

Cool shot--the color & detail in the truck are really well done.

There is something about those old rusty vehicles, I guess it is the history behind them, that makes them so interesting. Lovely capture with beautiful rusty and green colors on the snow.

Isn't it wonderful how "fading beauty" begins to blend with the landscape, and in your case, holds old family memories, still fresh!

Great find

@muriel Thank you, Muriel! I totally agree about rusty old vehicles! I've had my eye on this old truck since last summer and finally got a shot of it!

@Weezilou You are so right, Louise! After I took shots of this truck, my mother-in-law thoroughly enjoyed telling me several stories about the family who owned the truck. :-)
