A Diamond in the Rough

A rather forlorn looking Diamond Reo found under
some highway overpasses in the Canton section of Baltimore.

It was shot on Fuji Superia-200 color negative film.
Canon EF 28-80mm f/2.8-4 L lens on EOS-3.

Some late night editing of photos taken of this "Diamond in the Rough"
put me in mind of "The Twilight Zone" and a great truck driving song.
Journey with me to this diesel-fragrant "alternate universe under the overpasses"
in my latest PhotoMoments podcast.
