Vintage Bowling Ball & Pins, 2011
Poking through some artifacts in local corporate archives, I found these vintage bowling pins and ball. Years ago company employees used these at the on-site bowling alley. Now that space has been turned into a restaurant/bar and these old pins and ball are gathering dust in a room filled with company history.

Digital photo
18”W x 12”H
This is a different angle of the same unused railroad bridge as in the photo Heavy Metal. However quite unlike the burnished satiny effect in that photo, here I opted for saturated color to emphasize the red painted numbers. I also increased the contrast and added noise to give it a harsh gritty feel to match the rusted rails and weathered wooden ties in the upper left corner.
