Rust & Resilience | Pune 2017 | Snugug Photography

A heavily weathered, vintage Indian tanker truck sits immobile on cracked asphalt. The truck is painted in faded shades of red and orange, with significant rust and peeling paint revealing its age and history. The tanker body, a large cylinder behind the cab, is streaked with a broad white stripe, overlaid with an inscription in dark lettering, partially obscured by wear and discoloration. At its left end is a smudge of purple paint. The cab itself is decorated with elaborate painted details, including floral patterns and geometric shapes in bright blues, reds, and yellows adorning the door frames and trim. The driver's side door is slightly ajar, offering a glimpse into the dark interior. Above the windshield, a decorative overhang features intricate carvings and painted script in a dark color, possibly a religious or cultural saying. The truck's front is battered, with a damaged grill and missing headlights, adding to its derelict appearance. The whole scene is cast in warm, harsh sunlight, emphasizing the textures of the worn paint, rust, and crumbling surface of the vehicle. — Rust & Resilience

When I was walking around Pune, I stumbled upon this vehicle graveyard with the most fascinating collection of junked vehicles. Piles of motorbikes, crushed cars, decrepit tuk-tuks, and this truck, with remnants of its former painted glory still visible.
