A very nice discovery, if its still accessable there's the potential for a range of shots here.

The image seems a bit bright and light to convey the feeling of old and abandoned. I think I would have tried to darken it and not so much sharpening. Also a closer crop might work better, I understand wanting to show the surroundings and were the old truck is but sometimes just a hint of it and letting the viewer use their imagination works better.

I wish I could visit ans shoot some myself, well done a six from me.

Amazing how a piece of junk, when viewed through the lens of an artist, can become a work of art. :-) Great shot. I love the colors, textures and composition. It may be a tad oversharpened (leaves tend to look oversharpened even while other parts may need more sharpening). Good luck in the challenge!

oohh another old truck...
Looks a bit depressing, nobody caring about this good old truck, now calling it a piece of junk after it worked so hard for years...
Great pic.
