[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
A typical sighting here in the Philippines for truck drivers travelling long distances, delivering goods in far areas. They usually travel in companies of 2 or 3, alternating in driving their truck while their partner(s)
take their rest.

:) :)

Ok, for those who are finding it hard to believe this, the original pic is in the workshop, it will make more sense if you check it out:)

I couldn't believe it but then there are so much things done differently in other countries I said to myself why not... but them I saw your workshop and understand that the truck isn't moving at all. quite ingeneous way to take a rest anyway.
Well see Alford.

Que coisa louca!!!, como ele consegue fazer isso. Voce registrou de forma jornalistica um momento muito curioso.
Saudações Alford.

:-))))))))) lol. if you hadn't made the comment or posted the original i'd have believed you!! still this is a great shot excellent ps skills. (just learning photoshop, would you share the effects you used?)

lol, this is what I like about us, we can sleep anywhere we want to , without minding the danger, truly typical filipino....tfs!

very interesting observation! good framing too. your
blurred BG is also good.

This man has been nicely brought, Alford, a very dangerous position to have rest as second driver there, very sharp and clear, this not easy a truck those drive to take a good photograph.
Well seen!

Hi Alford,
You almost got me there!
Nice PS motion effect you've added, and an excellent joke ;-D
Brigitte

Very funny picture.
It looks a little dangerous :)

In the beginning I was sure that the picture was taken on motion. After I saw the original one I understood.
Kudos

Well - you fooled me ;-) On my holidays in Europe have I seen some strange trafic situations - but too bad - no documentary - For instance have I seen a man sitting on the fronthood of a car pouring petrol in a tube leading to the engine (Ok the car was driving very slowly)

Thanks Alford - for this Joke and a smile.

Amazing reportaz photo you get here Alford! Really an unbelievable scene! Congratulations!

hahaha..u caught me there.. before looking on the workshop i taught its really what u wrote in ur notes... haha..very nice idea and creativity in capturing this photo and also the great photoshop works!

hi alford, I see that all the time too while travelling around the philippines :)

wow...before i saw the workshop, i was a little worried about that guy...but as i see, it was just a little blur trick...nice one!
regards,
theresa
