    Junkyard Nights: Haunting Norcal's Automotive Graveyards
    Night Salvage: Haunting Socal's Automotive Graveyards
    • 2021

      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.

      Night Salvage is a nocturnal love letter to three rarely seen collections of junk cars, lost in the deserts of Southern California. Follow the author as he haunts these vehicular graveyards. Even as he paints his scenes with light during the lengthy time exposures, he paints pictures with words as his essays capture the essence of the experience. Drift with him like a ghost through these strange sites: a classic abandoned High Desert junkyard; a TV and movie prop vehicle graveyard; and a little known art project, consisting of thousands of cars, forgotten up a remote canyon. Whether you're a fan of automotive history or creative photography, riding into the night with Troy will be an unforgettably mind-bending journey.
