discussion, gear, and photography journal
A wide-angle lens can be great for capturing cars from interesting angles. With this particular photo, I wanted to capture the mud on the side of the car, as well as the dark and threatening sky overhead.
Holding the camera low down, with the 10-22mm lens, allowed me to capture the car, road, and plenty of interesting sky.

Wow, that turned out really nice....I wouldn't be surprised to see it in some marketing materials in the future :D

Marketing materials... is there a story behind this?

@Richard: there is indeed a story behind this dirty car....I might have to blog about it sometime ;-)
