Super nice truck, lots of luck with it.

Just curious, can you tell us some about what camera/lense etc. you used for the pics.

ioeb · 12-22-2005, 04:13 PM

The camera is a Canon 20D
The lenses used were: Canon 70-200F4L, Tamron 17-35mm lens
Processing using Adobe Photoshop CS

I waited until the sunlight was coming in an a low angle to provide a more dramatic look (you can tell by the angle of the shadows on the ground.)
