I'm a delivery driver here in Sydney
this isn't my truck (can't take photos and drive at the same time)
taken on an overcast day as the truck crested the top of a bridge
the sky was blown out on purpose for the high key look that you don't see very often with photos of trucks

Love this shot - clean and nicely done. It would not have been nearly as effective without the blown out sky in my opinion. Good choice. Congratulations on top 20!

I liked this one a lot. I bet you could sell this as a stock photo.

Nice shot. I think the position of the truck in the frame is just right, but the empty space to the left is just a little too overpowering somehow. If there had been something in there it would have worked better. Something small to emphasise the size of the truck - a roadsign, perhaps?

Nice composition - it feels like the truck is in motion.

This image feels like trucking, good perspective, composition, simple and effective. Illumination of the drive might help, but I like it a lot. Keep on truckin'!

This is a very arresting image...the lack of color and position of truck give it a great impact.

Good placement in the frame and the negative space is nice, but the drivers seat seem to be empty! J/K, I'm American, you can't expect us to know anything that goes on outside our country! To bad there wasn't a nice blue sky to set off the white of the truck.
Overall pretty nice 9

The composition really reinforces the bulk and intimidation factor these big trucks have. Nicely done!

8, but without the border I'd go to an 9 - it's just a bit too much IMO
