Junkyard Nights: Haunting NorCal’s Automotive Graveyards

Author(s): Troy Paiva
$24.99
DESCRIPTION
Junkyard Nights is a nocturnal love letter to the ghosts of our automotive past. Follow photographer, Troy Paiva, as he shoots two old school junkyards in California’s agricultural heartland by the light of the full moon—wandering among the rusting hulks of space-age wrecks to reanimate their battered, expressive chrome faces and retro-futuristic cockpits with colorful light.

His essays not only capture the essence of these desolate industrial landscapes, but also contemplate the place these mid-twentieth-century cars hold in the pantheon of modern ruins.

Whether you’re a fan of automotive history or creative photography, wandering the junkyard rows by moonlight with Troy is sure to be a mind-bending journey.

ABOUT THE AUTHOR(S)
Troy Paiva, a.k.a. the Lost America guy, has been obsessed with shooting the abandoned American West at night since 1990. His surreally lit night photographs have been displayed in galleries and museums, and published countless times, in over a dozen countries. Troy has worked as an artist his entire life, earning his keep as a product designer, draftsman, illustrator, graphic designer, photographer, writer, and painting instructor. Boneyard is his third book of night photography. If you want to know more about Troy and his work, visit www.lostamerica.com.
