[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
This bunch of guys on a carpool (or a truckpool) was on their way home from their tiring work from the city. It was on an uphill climb so i did carefully managed to take snaps of them with one hand on the steering wheel driving while the other with my camera.

I've noticed that all of them wasn't looking backwards, all of them was with their heads either on the front of the road if not on their sides. Maybe they were thinking about their loved ones who was waiting for them at their houses.. thinkin' 5 more minutes away from home....

thanks for viewing my contribution to this friday's theme...

Interesting twist on the Theme Jowel. Well captured and presented her with the lines in the road to lead us to the vehicle. My goodnes it would be good to put some of those utilities underground.

Nice idea Jo.. Sharp image (on the subject) and the movement blur is nice.

Hello Jowel

Firstly I must say you should be careful shooting and driving at the same time my friend. Also your shots would be sharper I think if you were not travelling. Still considering you were moving then this is a fairly good shot with very good colour saturation.


TFS and for joining in the theme

kind regards Helen
