hit the brakes

the result of a hit-the-brakes moment whie driving along this street...Dayton is a local company that has been making hand-crafted footwear since 1946, and is renowned for high-quality leather boots for motorcyclists

in retrospect it might have been better to return here an hour or so later to catch more light on the front of the truck, if it was indeed still in the same spot

Cool shiny red truck taken from a great point of view. I think the front end being in the shadows adds more punch to the great logo on the door. V
