Heavy Lift

With the loads of overtime this week and long hours I have not had much chance to shoot anything.
I have been at the Estevan office most of the week working on a big project.
While I was there the guys were just getting this box slinged up to mount back on this 777D truck.
I had a few seconds to shoot some images of this operation.
We work with this big stuff all the time so it's not new to me, and the 10mm view really makes them look big.
I'm only feet from this running beast at 10mm. I hope to have some cool 10mm views of the
big water truck that we are working on up next....

You are making me drool for a wide angle lens!! I love the look of this, especially what it does for the sky.

With something this big you need the 10mm lens. Nice capture.

Fantastic perspective, Mike -- but even more, the vibrancy of the colors within the design is outstanding! I love this piece!! Huge vote!

Cool angle and wide view; these beast were made for 10mm.

Wonder if I could borrow that for the next Monster Truck Rally?
Can have it back first thing Monday morning
(depending on traffic).
: )

The powerful treatment of the sky really adds to the overbearing stance of the machinery...nicely done.

Cool perspective. Looks like it's ready to pounce. Great looking sky too.
