A month after my father-in-law passed away, the family had someone drag the 1947 Ford stake body truck out of the woods. It had been there for many years. I guess he had hopes of restoring it, but now the truck's day had come. It's destination was unknown. Perhaps an astrologer could look at their horoscope and see if the owner is an Aquarius because of that constellation overhead.
I used a brown plastic grocery bag over a hand-held flashlight to lightly "paint" the foreground. Unfortunately I was unable to capture the redness of the black gum overhead. It doesn't take much light to make that work on a 15 second exposure!
