The Pit Crew

Well, it's two kids and an older guy. I got this while shooting an off road race in Nevada.

C & C always appreciated

I think this shot would be more interesting if you enlarged the truck and trailer so you could see more of the detail. They seem too far away in this image. I do like the setting.

The truck was on the otherside of the track. This image was not cropped at all so I may not pick any more detail than what I have already

The more I look at it, I wonder is this a picture of the crew or of the mountain range (landscape shot). I have yet to decide.

Thanks for commenting Jim.

Nice capture and a great title. I was looking for something from the Daytona 500.

Great shot Manacsa.
I see just enough of the lightning on the truck. It's an interesting shot and the magnitude of the backdrop and there's a nice area of green between truck and mountain giving it a nice bit of depth. There's very little to suggest a race track nearby and that is good; hence there is a bit of isolation/being lost added. A big one of this I'm sure would look fabulous.

Thanks Greg. There is a Nascar event this weekend 1 hour away from here but I don't have the time or money to attend. There is a race in Long Beach come April. Maybe I can shoot there


Thanks for your comment Tom. You share what I see in the shot. I've been driving pass this area since childhood everytime we go to Vegas. I never knew I would be photographing it so much.

I like the landscape more than the pit crew. If I were you I'd either crop or reshoot. Because the shadow on the bottom of the mountain looks nice.

I'll go back and do a pano of the area. I'm there like every 2 months.....it's on the way to Vegas you know

Thanks for your comment and suggestion!

nice u have the choice.. i assume u mean crop most of the original image away to change from a landscape shot to a pit crew shot..

i wouldnt consider i had that choice but thats just me..

No I wouldn't crop it. I wonder if this is a landscape shot accessorized by the object in the foreground of vise versa. I suppose it depends on the viewer and what they appreciate more about the photo

i like it as it is.. a pit crew in a landscape.. my apologies for thinking u might crop the landscape part away.. but the word does seem very commonly used here.. he he
