Now I know that I'm 'Mr Picky' when it comes to truck photos....but Im actually quite happy with this one...nice worm's-eye view angle, good positioning natural lighting and there's a driver in both cabs..(It's almost as if they've read my script!) BUT (isn't there always a but?) when you have the truck facing out of direct sunlight (and even when it's in it) a good way to add a bit of 'drama' (or at least 'lift') is to turn on the headlights. A small thing but it can be very effective..so dont' forget. TURN THAT LIGHT ON! And click through here for the full story!
And why do I have this photo on Biglorryblog? In order to tell you that the first two production 12-tonne Isuzu Forward crewcab trucks have recently joined the 28-strong fleet of West London-based recovery company Automania. Fitted with tilt and slide bodies manufactured by Worldwide Recovery Systems, the new F120.240 rigids join the Heathrow fleet where 28 out of the 42 recovery vehicles operated are Isuzus. Indeed, Richard Goddard, boss of the Automaia Group tells BLB: "As longstanding operators of Isuzu trucks, we have complete faith in the product. Solid and robust, the vehicles are ideally suited to the intensive recovery operations in this part of London. For the type of recovery contracts we have recently gained, we need two new heavier weight crewcab vehicles and we had no hesitation in specifying the new Isuzu Forward 12 tonners. The customer care we receive is second to none and in the rare event of a problem, we can rely on Isuzu 24/7, which is what we have come to expect from them through experience," adds Richard.

And back to the photography, of course you can always cheat if you forget to put the lights on as this VERY CRUDE bit of re-touching work with 'paint' shows... But better to turn them on from the start don't you think?
