I like this, it looks like Mater from my favorite movie: "Cars" /Noah

Sorry Nico but some how I managed to hit the wrong key and send your comment to cyber space, but I was able to bring it back from the dead, Sorry!!. I would have loved to go for the shot as you suggested but the field the old truck sit's in is planted in wheat and I did not think it would be a good thing to just wonder on out, set up the tri-pod and go for the low angle shot with the tammy 17-50. I am going to go back and ask the keepers of this patch of earth for permission to lightly traverse my way to my choisen spot. There is a nice old barn and tree that would bring a hole new angle to this shot. Wish me luck....

Super colours, Greg, and a nice feeling to this one. I would have been inclinded to try for a slight off-centre position, but this is not intended to come across as major criticism, just a thought. Well done. Regards Nico

Lovely; the green grass with the rust of the truck goes really well together.

Cheers, Vikas.
