Agreed, really nice POV and that 18-55 kit lens renders a great image coupled with the K-5IIs,

Nice shot...looks like a grader with snow plow package is being delivered somewhere just in time for winter. Notice the Canadian and American flag decals on the side of the truck. Wonder if he was going north to deliver that snowplow.

Well the truck had Minnesota license plates, and tthose machines are made overseas these days, so I would guess he picked it up at the Port of Seattle, and was taking it to the Land of a Thousand Lakes.

And I shot the photo in April, so it was likely being delivered to a municipal highway authority in preparation for the newxt winter season.
