World's largest tire

[MEB]

On the expressway approach to Detroit, Michigan. This is an actual tire (tyre for our British cousins) and has been there for decades. Taken through the windshield at 75mph. It may not be obvious but there is a car directly next to the tire to show how enormous it really is. I had the 28 cron on my M9. The 75 cron probably would have been better but it came up faster than I expected and didn't have time to switch lenses. Converted in NIK SEP2.

Thanks for looking,

Mark,

 

A great shot at that speed. I hope you weren't driving.

That is one big tire.

Mark -

 

Fun, well made shot, especially considering how quickly you had to react. Now I'm concerned about your habits while driving.
