It was scheduled for 12 - 2, the worst possible hours to photograph! It is a bright sunny day here - 87 degrees on November 1st. To shoot from the shadow side, I would have had to lie down on the ground and shoot up! Believe me, I thought about it. I tried fill flash and I took people inside the tractor trailers to photograph them in the only shade around. I'd much rather have too little light than too much!!
