 We were on our way to Austin when we came across this modern day caravan.

I like the clear sky and the mountains in the background...

i also got some closer shots but i chose this one instead... i know the subject was wheels but a closer shot was really confusing i guess....

thank you all for your helpful comments, it is my first contribution to the site and i am not a photographer at all!
i guess that's why i didn't shoot it from the other side.

I think you might have been better photographing this from the other side, where the sun appears to be.

they look like they're mating! nice capture, might try cropping in closer (don't really need that sign, I think).

This is a pretty neat shot. I didn't know they hauled them that way. No shortage of wheels in this shot.

lighting is on the wrong side / angle. trucks in shadow, losing detial onthe wheels - the topic of the pic.

I saw the same exact shot the other day..except mine wa a little tighter, they were stacked more vertically passing by on the opposite side of the highway. I thought to myself that i should turn around and drive after it for a shot, but was too lazy. I ENVY YOU!
