rust and weeds

film photagraphy 

fall 2002 

This shot illustrates the mystery of my father's yard. 

I wonder if people could guess what it is they are looking at.

It seems quite cryptic out of context. 

It is an oil or gas tank of some sort, sitting in a dirt filled wheelbarrow. 

The dirt has decaying plantlife and little plastic garden-markers poking out of it.

Perhaps it is still mysterious,

even knowing that much.
