Old Trucks

While taking a different route home yesterday, my wife and I came across these old trucks out in a field. Had to make a special trip back to catch the late afternoon sun and even the full moon rising just after sunset.

Great stuff Doug. Good job!

All are super - sooooo nice to see subdued colours and not the over saturated .
I like every composition above.

I like all of these with number #3 being my favorite I think. Great job.

Very nice shots. Where are these at? I go through Thompson Station all the time.

The trucks are actually in Franklin on Clovercroft Road near McKay's Mill. I've bumped into photographers twice there now and am thinking it's a choice spot for senior pictures (did my son's last night). Maybe the owner parked them out there for our enjoyment!

Cool, thanks for the info.

Great Work..

The moon shot is interesting. Hay bales and pink light from the sunset.
Next time get a couple of darker exposures so you can have the moon's face in detail.
The moon is always so much brighter than expected.

that is a really nice truck!!!!!!

NOW IF YOU COULD GO BACK AND PUT A SOLD STICKER ON IT!!!!!!! ILL TAKE IT!!!!!!!

Thanks for the comment. I thought the same. Also, the moon always appears so small. I was wondering if it might work to back up (a bunch) and use a 200mm to make the moon a little larger in relation to other parts of the image. This was shot with a 35mm lens. Too bad full moons only come around every 4 weeks.

Agree. I'd love to have that one restored and in my garage. My wife wants me to buy her a '53 chevy... if only we had a good place to keep it.
