ROWIEBOWIE - I agree, NOTSTOCK is perfect just the way it is. No messing around

ROWIEBOWIE - Not sure INTERBLOG setup to compose that pic with dog posing for 10mins I guessing dog got in the way at last sec., but yet managed to make shot even better. Sometimes the best shots include a photo bomb by a loved one

AIR99 - I got major inspiration from a lot of T1N pics posted in this forum and partial inspiration from your posted Avatar. I thought it would please you
Just sayin . . .
I do not like raccoons, I prefer to call Zorro effect. More chivalrous & dignified, less disparaging. But hey, you still look beautiful - just not sure if it was my beer or my old age messin' with my head.

I see your Zorro and raise you a bombed-out building. Because that's what these rigs remind me of when there are miscellaneous black windows floating semi-randomly in a sea of silver, with nothing to unify them. Especially the RoadTreks.

Postscript on diagonals, thirds, photo strong points, and Notstock...
If I ever hire Notstock to photograph my rig, I would want it to be here. I will omit the long story, but this graffiti is so famous that people routinely petition Houston's Mayor to have it declared a protected landmark (he would if he could but he can't because it's private property). If any of the area's taggers mess with it, the public outrage makes the 6 pm news.
To be determined is how anyone could possibly arrange a proper Interstate photo here without getting either arrested, killed, or both.
Anyway, the real artistic accomplishment is the staging of this artwork. The artist could have chosen any location in a 10,000-square-mile metro, but he chose THIS location, the exact right location. The energy of this frame is simply breathtaking. Diagonals, thirds, convergences, strong points - it's all there - it all comes together there. He nailed it. And that's why it's famous.
I took this yesterday after a professional seminar which put me in five o'clock rush hour with two million of my closest friends (that is the actual size of every rush hour here). I said to myself, "Dang, I finally got stuck beneath Be Someone, and I don't have my DSLR with me!" This was taken on my iPhone through my windshield.

I like the “sea” paint job.
This thread wants to morph and become a “best and worst of”.
Here’s how NOT to mask a Sprinter’s windows. Notice the difference, how Alex’s looks put-together and this one looks like a mutant van. Aaaaauggghhh...

It is a mutant. That is not a painted window mask. That is a Sprinter bus - very common in Europe. Those are large glass windows on the sides.

I thought about that possibility but I was wondering whether they could really put a window that large on the slider, structurally speaking.

Here are a couple more for your viewing pleasure. Including one that has the large windows and the painted mask. Also link to one of the builders.

This one is neat. Tough to touch up, though.
