Here is the tank in which I made some days of army, I was the gunner. Now I was finished my days of service in civilian life, and it is not more bad...

This is a great composition. Nice job picking the POV looking down the gun barrel, it's perfect. I really like the slightly overexposed highlights as well. They do very well in bringing out the features of the tank. I like how you've included a human factor showing the drivers head poking out. I love the devious little smirk on his face, like he's ready to go have some fun with his tank. Thanks for sharing.

Hello Robin,

Impressive POV!
Your DOF is excellent too, there's a kind of 3d effect.
Bravo!

Marc.

Really nice shot. The gun barrel sort of forces the viewer into the scene, since no one stands indifferently to such a deadly machine pointing right at you.... and only then you realize that the driverīs head is there, with that look saying " I can be nice, but I can also blast you".....good work! Hope you never have to ride on one of these anymore, though. The less of these runing around, the better for all of us! Cheers!
Fabio

Hello Robin!

I do not know why , but I feel like the famous fellow who faced one monster like this on Tiananmen Square a few years ago!
Great POV, and superb DOF!
Glad to see you are now living a more peaceful life (^_^).
Cheers!
Robert

Leopard II is surely a superior MBT as compared with Abrams M1A2 as far as all terrain mobility is concerned. And for firepower T-80UD cannot be forgotton. But wait...... why are all these machines for? Killing human beings?

The image quality is nice and smiley is for positive thinking and nice commentry note; perhpas you CAN share this image.
