    Tipoff fail

    I was working on a piece of equipment in a quarry the other day when this happened just behind me, thought it was worth a shot.......
    I intend to send the company a copy so I was wondering what needs looking at before printing.

    Thanks Anbesol, I suppose the green is a bit much, but it is the company colour. You think it should go then ?

    I would definitely git rid of the green. if you wanna emphasize a green, why not just bring out the green that's there in the main metal parts of the truck that's pointing upward (sorry can't find the right words to point you to the green i'm talking about.). Also if it's a fail, do u really wanna associated it with the company colours? ;)

    Very nice Pete. I think it was well spotted and you did a great job capturing it.

    Thanks Greg , guess it was a place and time thing... The main thing that bugs me with this is the rear of the CAT loader blends with the stock pile behind, I have made several attempts to make it stand out more, but none seem to improve the situation.
