Jeremy Green “Goodbye Old Paint” 7/10/22

Cowboys sang a particular kind of yip to soothe the cattle they herded on the Chisholm Trail. The song “Goodbye Old Paint” sung by Tex Ritter was one. It’s worth a listen.  

The crumbly painted wall in west Texas couched the old Cadillac road warrior. The play of colors and textures told a story of things that have outlasted their use and have been discarded along the way. My intuition with a mid-range zoom lens progressively arrived at this composition.
