An old pickup truck used as a display outside the grocery store at Whole Foods world headquarters in Austin, TX.

This has got a real punch to it. Only slight concern is with the tight framing around the tire. Would loved to have sen a shot from camera left a bit looking down the body a bit. But... adore the reflecions.

I appreciate the C&C, Flibble. I agree about the tire but there was a large ugly pipe on the scene that I was not at liberty to move. I cropped the image precisely at the pipe. This shot is the leftmost one I took on that side of the truck. I was trying to keep the "LOCAL" sign in the frame as buying local is one of the things that Whole Foods Market is known for. I shot the other side of the truck too, but the lighting was not as flattering and it was mostly covered up by a display of potting soil bags for sale.

Orlando and Kevin, thanks to you too. I thought I had responded earlier.

Lovely, rich colors! Is there a bit of HDR tweaking here? If there is, the subtlety works beautifully.

Thanks, Tamara. Nope, no HDR. I slid some sliders for the Exposure, Levels, Hightlights & Shadows and Enhance in Apple's Aperture 2. I also applied a slight crop and a vignette. But that's about it.

Oh yeah, and the lighting was incredible Friday evening. I'd have to thank a higher power than Apple or Nikon for that one.

Thanks Bev. I tend to have lunch at WF more often than not as I work nearby.
