 polarizing filter on ... hand held ..
did a few trial shots .. and best shutter speed was 1/15 so i'd get the truck blurred to suggest movement .. lots of trucks use picton road ...
did a small amount of editing on this photograph!!! ... lol lol ...
actually its not that much really ... most of the editing was in the bottom bit of image where i extended the white line and added the picton road text ...
also did adjustment layer hue/sat and increase saturation on red,blue and yellow .. desat the green a bit .. increased height of image another 40% and then brought white line out to new edge ... did the text which i rasterized and then skewed .. sharpened .. did noise ninja but erased the truck from that layer so it wasnt noise ninja'd ... smart sharpened, border and saved for web ..
the font is called stereofidelic which i got somewhere or other!!
there's be steps that i've done which i've forgotten .. its taken nearly 2 hours to do ... that includes actually selecting the photo that i wanted to work on out of the 10 or so that i took coming home today from DENTIST!!! .. just remembered i did a faint vignette ... ahh yes ... also copy and pasted a bit of the road after i increased the height on canvas size, coz there was an edge after i put a black layer underneath and then i skewed and scaled it ... and then i blah blah blah blah ..... and blah blah blah ... etc etc etc ...

Roz, this is definitely one of my favorite shots from you. It is so incredibly cool.

Love the blur on the truck, the sun illuminating the road and the trees in the front. It is just great!!

Lots of steps to get this very nice image. I really like the perspective of the truck when compared to the disappearing road. Really get a feeling of distance.
