I was on my way to a photo assignment when I got caught up behind this truck and wagon. This was actually tough to shoot. Aside from the fact that I was operating a motor vehicle while trying to compose a photograph, I was having some serious backlighting issues. I wanted to highlight the speedometer on my Dynasty (which will get a post of its very own in the near future) and the fact that I was traveling 25 miles under the speedlimit, and still capture the wagon. I used the built-in flash on my 20D (for maybe the first time ever) to highlight the dashboard while I kept my exposure meter set on the wagon.
Kind of lame, but kind of fun too.

A while back on a trip to Wisconsin I was being followed by the Oscar Meyer truck. I'll post that photo on my blog as soon as I can find it. It also shows my face, so it can also double as a response to the self-portrait post that you did earlier. Ken
Not lame at all. I like it. Bug splats & all.
Yeah, I hope the splattered bugs didn't offend you, Ethan. ;-) That one looks pretty gruesome.
Ken,
I decided to delete the self-portrait post. I didn't want to have to start beating the girls away with sticks.
And I missed the self-portrait, dangit!
Clever shot this one.
