      awesome... where do you find these things?

    15. bitzcelt (46 months ago | reply)

      Thanks everyone. This stuff is a lot of fun. After working a 12 hour shift I had to force myself to stop and squeeze a little photography in. This was taken a little after midnight.

      @crfleury, I geotagged this for you. If you go to satellite view you can actually see the truck in the field. I tend to look around a lot while I am driving for anything that might make an interesting photo. Not very safe, but at least I am not on my cell while I am looking. =-)

      You are very brave to enter the apocalypse in the dark. What a really cool experiment. And it worked perfectly, it appears.

      Keep an eye out for the four horsemen... if you see them, run the other way. ;)

      Sweet self-portrait! Love the detail on the truck (the faded flammable sticker, the broken windshield, the sticker from 1987....) as well as the contrast in light color temperature between the cab and the surroundings.
