Still a mystery on where the cars came from. They have bullet holes in them and there is a bunch of glass and trash through out the trails.<\/p>\n<p><a title=\"Abandoned cars in the Four Mile Creek Preserve trails. Webster, NY.

I have seen smoke bombs used in other artist\u2019s photographs so I had an idea of the effect they would create. <\/p>\n<p><a title=\"Abandoned cars in the Four Mile Creek Preserve trails.

I hope you enjoy the photographs as much as I enjoyed taking them. <\/p>\n<p><a title=\"Abandoned cars in the Four Mile Creek Preserve trails. Webster, NY.
