Phyllis Baynes – Truck Restoration

Restoring an automobile has long been a favorite pastime for a great many car enthusiasts but to attempt to restore a truck to its original condition for the select few. To tackle a large 1990 Peterbilt is probably a rare undertaking. Phyllis’ brother, Eric Gilley, is responsible for the finished product and Phyllis for the decision to photograph the Peterbilt in front of the Ashe County Court House, late on a sunny, golden afternoon. “I am very proud of my brother and his talent to be able to take an old truck and restore it to such beauty.”

An ACC member workshop recently took place concentrating on the techniques and tricks for obtaining the best results in macro photography. The results of this short a session were so impressive that sharing with all members seemed the right thing to do. The four images below represent a sampling by each of those photographers who participated.
