Trucking sunset


Trucking sunset - #221/365, originally uploaded by PJMixer.
We were expecting storms today, but the weather stayed hot and humid most of the day, but as night was closing in, some threatening clouds were rolling in as the sun was setting. I was in the West end close to the highway so thought I'd try and capture the interesting sky with some urban contrast. I positioned myself so I'd get a chance at a vehicle silhouette and luckily (as the sky kept changing and darkening) this tow truck came along. The sky was quite bright so handheld (with VR) was still possible, but the shutter speed was slow enough to create some nice blur of the truck.
