M'enfin!, a photo from Hubei, Central

Photographer's Note

Sorry for foggy driver, but I took this shot as quick as I could so as to avoid any misunderstanding with this nice people. I wouldn't want them to think that I make funny of their situation.
Hope it gets you smilling!

Man that truck was overloaded.

Thanks for the hilarious picture. You clicked it at the right moment.

The driver's got a what-the-f kind of an expression on his face!

Cant stop laughing ....

very funny picture. You catched a unique moment. bravo!

AMZINCHIA (1082) 2006-06-12 9:51

Un grand eclat de rire! Tu devrais l'adresser a des tas de concours photo sur 'decisive moment', 'humour', etc. Bravo pour ta super rapide capture d'un moment absolument incroyable. Incroyable pour nous ... mais apres tout, pas tant que ca en Chine ou les routes sont le theatre de tous les possibles! Well done, --amz

t'a bien fait de t'arreter et de prendre ce
photo, parce que -malgre les degats des hommes presents- pour nous c'est une occasion de s'amuser.

Hello Thibaut,
An awesome capture!!!
How could you avoid to photograph this, passing by with a camera ready!
But.... You forgot to tell us how it all ended, or is there another image to come?
Regards,

Bon moment pour les spectateurs mais, mauvais pour le propiйtaire du camion. Bien vu.

Bonjour Thibaut.
Alors lа je suis pliй en 2. Je sais pas bien comment le chauffeur s'est sorti de la situation mais c'est sur que la retombйe a due etre dure pour la suspension... Excellente catйgorie humour
Cordialement

Hi Thibaut,
Maybe they deserved to be made fun of. That really was an accident waiting to happen. Good angle, good impressions. Could be improved by increasing contrast.

With this speed of reaction, you should work for the media, Thibaut!
Yes, you've got our smile, and congratulations for the successful snap.
Thanks,

Only in China, only in China.... :-))

nomadgraphics (145) 2006-06-27 6:59

wow, this is really an embaresing situation for them. This is really funny. this is what's happening when people don't think when they work.

padeg (423) 2006-08-12 3:51

The position of the driver is making the photo even more funny. You did not want to make funny of the situation ? You did though .. can't be helped. But I'm sure the driver can laugh about himself too today.

Merci pour ce rire aux йclats.

Un peu embкtant ouaip, mais tellement comique.
Tout а fait gaston Lagaffe, bien vu, mкme si tu n'as pas attendu que le chauffeur pendouille а la portiиre :-))

Hi Thibaut,
This is really humorous for everyone except the poor truckdriver who has landed himself in a mess!!!

As for the picture, the picture has alot more room for improvement in terms of post-processing. it could also be sharpened as there is a slight blur. I have posted a workshop on the your picture. hope it has turned the picture better.

Hi Thibaut!

Very funny photo!

Right time + right place + camera = extraordinary shot

MeAT (1174) 2007-03-18 11:12

Incroyable! Merci de t'кtre dйpкchй! L'expression que tu as captйe est vraiment spйciale.

Point de vue technique, juste un petit coup de sharpening dans Photoshop aurait bien servi la nettetй de ta photo, surtout que le redimensionnage de TE fait perdre de la nettetй.

Quelle photo!

MeAT :)

vizion (729) 2007-03-18 11:18

I hope the truck driver is aware that he is stepping out to... nothing!?

I'm still laughing, funny capture.

Thanks a lot,

Christian

Bonjour Thibaut,
Comme presque chaque matin je me connecte sur le site de TE et cette photo m'est apparue sur la premiиre page... je suis hilare! ;o)
C'est certain que cфtй qualitй elle pourrait кtre un peu meilleure, mais compte tenu de la situtaion et du fait que tu as du dйgainer trиs vite, on ne sera pas trop exigeant. On tout cas merci de m'avoir fait commencer la journйe par un grand йclat de rire.
Amicalement, Brigitte

philippe942 (234) 2007-06-26 14:53

la sйcuritй n'est pas encore une prioritй sur ces routes !?

merci pour le partage!
