Random Truck Photos: May 5th, 2005

These are some of the very first photos of trucks that I took with a digital SLR camera. I didn't have one myself until later in the year, but my awesome Uncle Paul lent me his Nikon D70 to use for a month or two back in 2005. The quality was a nice jump up from using a film SLR and little compact digital cameras.

These first ones are taken near the Port River.

After taking a few photos around the grain silos and wharf area, I moved on to the Wingfield BP truck stop, where there were plenty of nice rigs parked up.

Personal Archive Mining: March 19th, 2008.

March 19th was a rather truck-oriented day for photos, starting out at the Wingfield BP truck stop. There are always some interesting trucks parked or moving in and out of the facility.

So here are some photos of the trucks I saw that afternoon. All photos taken with a Nikon D70s and Nikkor 85mm f/1.4D lens.

After taking photos of a few interesting rigs at the truck stop, I headed up Port Wakefield Road for a little while, and took a few more photos of a lone trailer and abandoned building by the side of the highway. The light was fairly flat and boring for landscape tyre shots, so I've done some high contrast black and white conversions on these photos.
