Description
Here you see keys and wonder about the title. I see two or three at the most; house keys. The rest is mail box keys. I drove to this trailer park by the Gulf to day. Really to Holly beach and places around there. I past this place up and noted as i was driveing by the road into the place and a lot of wooden posts in the ground up to about three feet tall I guess. I do not know why all those posts was in the ground all line up at all. I saw the mail box and some ramps but no buildings. I saw these keys and knew it must been a trailer park here. All is gone now for the big storms name; hurricanes took them away. It was close to the shoreline. I could not see the Gulf from where the keys was at but I could smell it and know from my head it is close by.
I knew too that the people here lost every thing. What they had from the past and no future here too. All is gone. Just the clothes they have and what they pack into cars as they left. The owner of the park lost all too. No more rent. That why I call the photo "Keys of the Past was not the Future"
thanks for loking and comments
I think I be working too much this week to post or even to look on line lol. So I sorry and will caught you later on
oh; almost forgot. There no oil on the beaches I saw . There may be oil in other areas but I saw none. Yes I could post the beaches or the houses there too or nothing left but the slab foundation. I saw a lot of them and did not take many shots of them. People crabing too I took photo of. But I leave you with the thoughts of wonder what happen to the people who lost all and left they keys behind....

SECRET STORY OF LIFE ;-)
A photograph full of meaning and sadness ,Jock. No homes or people just the keys left. I liked to read your description that goes so well with the picture.
A sad photo of so much destruction!!
sad memories of people that left the plece to move elsewhere. Great shot
Great capture!!!
Very fitting title !
Cool textures in this shot of the debris left over from some event. Is this what is left over from Hurrican Katrina? I wonder if the oil will finally makes its way in to cover up these keys.
been following the stories on the weather channel and other programs, sad situation, my thoughts are with you all.
Cool shot and words, Jocko!
because I have done lots of locksmith work including safe technician, I have always had lots of keys.taking care of properties, I was expected to keep keys to them, but I tried to avoid it as I did not want the responsibility of being able to enter rented homes at will.besides I was able to pick locks so a key was only a convenience .I like this very much.you have a good eye for abstract
One of those keys might be the one that opens up the lock to the treasure. Aloha
Wonderful!
Awesome photography & symbolizm! Bravo Jock!
great image Jock.
Excellent shot! It speaks volumes.
The weather seems to be getting stranger and stranger. It's too bad there is so much damage, so many lose everything they have. How do they start over? A very sad and poignant shot.
I have a few keys that I have no idea what they are for maybe you found the right ones that fit somewhere in my house lol:: Great idea::!! Happy to hear about the oil and your ok there
Very nice informations, Jocko !!! Excellent done :) 5+
Very sad image. It makes me wonder about the lives these keys represent and where they are now. I have a friend here in San Antonio, that is a refugee from Katrina. She has made a good life here now, but so many lives were scattered by Katrina and Rita. Excellent shot!
