Description
I decided to name this old truck after the experience I had while shooting it. On one shot I decided to move the fence a but out of the way, just as the pulse came through. The feeling is not really painful, but it is also not something that I would put into the category of pleasure either.Given my experience, I decided to process this image with very vibrant colours to celebrate my re-acquaintance with electricity on the farm.
Thanks for taking the time to look.

This has to be a 1948 to 1950 Ford "F" series. We had a '51 Ford F-1 with a V-8 Flathead. As odd as it sounds they were a beautifuly designed "steel" truck. The combination of light rust. bed box color and sky make this a classic photo.

Growing up with horses I completely understand your experience getting jolted lol. I myself have had the unfortunate experience of touching the fence more than a few times.
The picture is amazing though, a lot of history in the lines of that truck. Thanks for taking it and putting it up here for us to see.

Another great shot as usual!
Ah, fence chargers. You unplug 'em, you ground 'em out, you go to fix the fence line, and some 'helpful' mother's son goes and plugs it back in again while your hand's on the wire!
You do find the nice ones.

lol....
I think you may have a good story here... care to tell it?.... (Maybe we can do a journal feature???) on you and your story???

Ah, well ... the number of times I've been hit with electric shock ... Might explain quite a bit.
I could do quite some stories about the old days, but I'd probably get sued by the people involved.

OK... well perhaps another time.
