Excellent work Oddur! This is a classic in more ways than one! :) I can see I'm going to be tempted into a wide-angle lens soon!! :D

Thank you Nigel. Maybe you should look for a wide-angle lens on eBay, lot of "gadgets" there :o)

Takk Begga. Allt í lagi að skrifa þetta á íslensku, en ég var búinn að gera myndina s/h nema trukkinn, bætti svo bláa litnum aftur inn í horninu :o)

I like the way the sky blends in with the snow..and the blast from the past is very interesting...

Oddur Jonsson pro replies:
Thank you Teo. It was cold and windy so the snow and the sky looked just the same. Don't know about the title, just what came to mind when I saw the picture :o)

Birkin says:
Þið eruð heppin á Íslandi með ýmsa gamla hluti út á víðavangi sem er alveg tilvalið í myndatöku, hér í Svíþjóð eru þeir allt of duglegir að hreinsa upp og kasta á haugana, því miður.
Skemmtileg mynd og bíllinn vel staðsettur í myndfletinum!
Posted 5 months ago. ( permalink )
Oddur Jonsson pro replies:
Takk Birkir. Vona að menn verði ekki of duglegir að henda svona "druslum" og rífa gömul hús hér á landi. Alveg nauðsynlegir hlutir fyrir okkur sem höfum gaman af því að taka myndir :o)

Charon pro says:
It looks lost in the white wideness and I think it's best days have gone. Perhaps there is a venturesome story behind? Anyway... great work Oddur and I love this shot :-)
Posted 5 months ago. ( permalink )
Oddur Jonsson pro replies:
Thank you Charon. This truck is resting by an old farm and probably served well for a long time. Now it just stands close to the new road and probably wishes it could take just one more ride on a sunny day through the countryside :o)
