dobbino from Cape Town, South Africa
He doesn't look too excited about life at the moment - can't say I blame him, though lol! Great capture.

@dobbino: It can be lonely on the roads :) Thanks a lot Rob!
Barbara from Florida, United States
Well spotted and captured, Lorraine.
My first thought was, he's ready to do the job, waiting for the call to come in, but only waits. Sign of the times.
Thought provoking image. Well done.
2 Jan 2009 1:12pm
@Barbara: Love your comment, thanks a lot BArb :)
Judy from Brooksville-Florida,, United States
Contemplation ... deep in thought ... and very "thought provoking" as Barb said.

@Judy: And thank You dear Judy lol :)
Viewfinder from Bradenton, United States
Nicely done, this desat work. And it is especially effective with the meditating man in the driver's seat. A very insightful find, well done Lorraine. Bella likes. Me, too.

@Viewfinder: You like, Bella likes, I'm in heaven lol
Photographs by M.E. from Tustin, United States

JJ from Jersey City, United States
He looks so deep in thought, great use of selective coloring
And the cube thingy you mentioned in your comment is a Rubiks cube I think

@JJ: Thanks a lot JJ and you're absolutely right about the cube thingy lol
marianne from Toulouse, from France, France
"pourvu que je n'aie pas d'autre livraison, et que je puisse vite rentrer à la maison ... et que la chaussée soit bien déneigée ..."

Michael Rawluk from Williams Lake, BC, Canada
Very nicely done Lorraine and it does make one think about what he could be thinking.
2 Jan 2009 3:53pm
@Michael Rawluk: Introverted souls recognize each other ;) thanks a lot Michael!
Michael Skorulski from Cigel, Slovakia
It is a tough and boring job driving a truck. Perhaps he was lost. An excellent image of everyday life, Lorraine.

@Michael Skorulski: I can imagine, he seemed pretty relaxed though lol thanks a lot Michael :)

2 Jan 2009 5:05pm
@Calusarus: Merci, c'est tres gentil Frederic :)
Janice Thomson from Canada
Another well-caught moment Lorraine - such an intense look of concentration or reflection about something. As always the selective colouring is perfect.
2 Jan 2009 5:27pm
@Janice Thomson: I appreciate that my dear friend ;)
Suzanne from Huntington Bch, United States
Terrific captured moment. I can easily imagine just what he's thinking.
2 Jan 2009 6:49pm
@Suzanne: Thanks a lot Suzanne, I appreciate it :)
Jasp from Plymouth, United Kingdom
You didn't forget me I stopped posting for a while.
He's thinking "I must get a warmer job this time of the year"
2 Jan 2009 8:17pm

Observing from West Cheshire, United Kingdom
Great shot Lorraine, was you hitching a ride :-0 lol, the guy looks a bit fed up, snowed in?
3 Jan 2009 12:42am
@Observing: In front of my house? lol thanks for the chuckle Mikey :)

Very good presentation, Lorraine! Your choice of treatment on this shot makes it special! Bravo!
Gabriela
3 Jan 2009 2:36am
@Japanalia: Thanks so much Gabriela, I appreciate the compliment very much :)
Paco Díaz from Spain
Very intimate image, and a good contrast between the b/w zone, outside, and the coloured details of the man thinking and the letters.
Very suggestive also: is he thinking of the long journey? of the love behind? of the new year worries? or simply is he waiting the road be clean of snow?
Wonderful, Lorraine.
3 Jan 2009 7:09pm
@Paco Díaz: Wow you really looked, I like your comment very much, thanks a lot Paco :)
