I made a return visit to this little trailer, which (if you’ve been around here long enough) you may recall from 2013.
Go on over and look at that other photo; I’ll wait.
So, see how it doesn’t look like anything’s changed? My theory is that the hot, dry air has mummified it.

My neighbor has one of those. It is unfortunately on the other end from mummified. Oh, and “Go Pirates ! “.

Yes, GO PIRATES, indeed.I just went to the school’s website to see what I could find out, and saw this very interesting sentence: This year Valentine I.S.D has no seniors.

My son spent part of one winter in one of these. In Ontario. Nearly froze off his extremities. So, I think in the heat, you could just boil away.
Do you suppose there is a mummy inside as well? Or a couple of them, frozen in a hot panting state on their bed? Like a mini museum of the heat?
I like the processing – it complements the previous view very nicely.

I think living in these trailers in the desert would be similar living inside an oven. I didn’t look inside this trailer – those chairs made me wonder if someone (alive) still lived there.
I was playing around with cropping and processing here, since I took that class and all…

I love the way you made the first image look like an old snap, Melinda. I agree with Mr E (as I call ehpem), the processing complements the first image beautifully but it also stands up well on its own.

Thanks, Kate. I don’t use that old-snapshot effect often, but sometimes it just seems to be what an image wants to have.
