I set up the light tent to shoot some shoes for a comp Jen was working on last night, and remembered this toy truck sitting in the bottom of a box, waiting to be displayed again. I found it on sale at an antique store because the trailer it originally came with was missing, but I loved the rake of the grille in the front.

I had to do some serious color retouching because I still don’t own a proper flash unit and the lighting situation is still less than optimal— these issues affect DSLRs as much as my G3. But I’m excited to do some more experimentation with brighter lights and learn to use my camera better for this kind of thing.
