 A roadside capture of an oilfield service company's staging yard. This is a sight I've long appreciated for its bold colors and orderly symmetry but haven't quite had a good enough reason to pull out of traffic and try photographing yet. Not 100% sure I got what I wanted with this one, but it seemed like a thematically fitting stab at the composition.

The grunge processing is intentional--a way of evening out the distribution of luminosity and textural interest across the frame. Somehow the "clean" version of this just made the colors look a little too garish for my taste.

Balanced and well seen. I suspect I would also like the "clean" version.

This is a fun location with all of that color.
