Junk

This is only a small part of the junk yard. It was a fascinating place to see when we were driving by so I had to stop and take a few shots.

Thank you for your uplifting comments and for your favs.
not a lot of biodegradable waste there! Love your processing Marilyn

There is something quite depressing about all that discarded money and obsolete scrap metal... great processing and composition.

When my dad retired he would go around looking for this kind of stuff, take it apart and get so much a pound for it at scrap metal places. Don't they have that now? Where are all the recycling places.

@sailingmusic That's a good question Myrna. I don't know what they do with all the junk. I thought there were recycling centers, too. They must still be around. I know we recycle a lot of our trash.

Can't say I've seen many junkyard shots. This one is great though. I like the processing and the sky. Great job!

So much stuff there. It's sad there is so much waste. However, you did great processing this picture.

Not very nature love like.
Don`t you have recycling ? We can`t trow away it like this , big fined you can get for it.
Nice to show we can`t do this to our planet

@pyrrhula Pyrrhula, I'm guessing this junk yard is a business that sells parts or metal to make money. We do recycle here, too but I do see junk yards now and then that are businesses.

something quite nice about this - great edit

@mittens I did suppose so but in the open ? . We do it in examined recycling companies. Even the store/shop floor have to be built to rigid rules
October 26th, 2012  
@pyrrhula I guess here, Pyrrhula, it depends on the different counties and what kind of rules they have and I'm not sure what the rules are. I don't usually see junk yards like this one. Mostly the ones I see are ones with old cars and car parts.

I love the processing, it looks amazing against the sky with the trees in the background, well done!
