The contest asks for pictures of “Truckstop scenes,” such as this night shot from a Georgia Pilot. The prize, in addition to publication in Truckers News, will be something of a “field guide” to the basics of shooting, by Bryan Peterson, founder of the Perfect Picture School of Photography, www.ppsop.com. It’s “Understanding Photography Field Guide: How to Shoot Great Photographs with Any Camera,” an excellent reinforcement of the trained photographic eye, I’ve found.
