This one looks like it will take out the truck!! I like the use of the wide 
to capture the effect of size and motion.

Thanks for looking. Week 38's offerings:

We got a new sign at work this week. A truck took the old one out  
months ago in a multi-vehicle crash. It's my first piece of design  
that is writ in stone;^) I'll send a shot when the ground is sculpted.  
Here they are setting it.

Got a couple of hours last week to shoot urban landscapes and night  
folk in Winston-Salem, NC. Yes, it's where the cigarettes got their  
names. We won't talk about the table of tracheostomy patients I sat  
next to at a hotel happy hour there one night.

The Noctilux and Nokton really can record things (handheld) that you  
cannot see with your eye. This lady was minding a late night urban  
grocery. I could hardly make out facial details.

Customers outside the Silvermoon Saloon. This is the Nokton 35/1.2  
wide open.

I really do enjoy the mixed light of late night cities. I've got to  
try HDR on this stuff.
