This rendition is what the camera chose for you. Lovely shot but don't rely on the camera to render the effect you want. 

😃

Thomas @Thomas Varghesehow much for the camera ?!🤣🤪

I bought it second hand for 900 AED. The camera is a 12 year old model the canon 5D Mark 1. The new model Canon 5D Mark IV is around 12000 AED with the 24-70 mm lens. For still photography Canon 5D any model is the best in their line up. If you want to shoot video you have to go for the 5D Mark 2 and above models. I bought this to experiment with a full frame as my other camera is a crop sensor camera the canon 700D. Didn't touch this camera for almost 2 years after buying as my lenses option for this camera is less

I had this Canon 5D Classic full frame camera for 2 years now. Its a 10 year old camera which I bought 2nd hand. I took it out to experiment for the 1st time during this drive with a 50mm prime lens. Problem with prime lenses are you got to move your feet. I like this picture too. The wrangler looks like a mean machine waiting to eat up the night desert sands the moment its unleashed with its lights blaring all the way and ready to spring like a black stallion.

The car was recovered in 15 to 20 min and back on its 4 wheels and continued the drive. 

Its back to normal. The car over heating issue is not there anymore. Thanks to @Foxtrot Oscar for insisting to exit and take it to a garage. 

Very true

I hope you like being clicked @Thomas Varghese in action!

sure of course. As I take pictures of everybody midst of the little time I get during the action there are few who clicks mine. 
I think I have to talk to @Anish S to start experimenting in RAW format and editing them in Lightroom

Thank you @Veedooshee. I'm flattered. Next time I will surely picturize you in action. 

@Anish S you have a real powerful camera the Nikon D7200.

As a photographer yourself @frederic I hope you know how its difficult to shoot an 80mm focal length shot at 1/13 shutter speed handheld without camera shake. Thank God the little camera shake could be somewhat adjusted and corrected in post production and yes I like the shot. The model @chaitanya has the greatest smile, lighting was good. Next time I will try to eliminate slow shutter speed shake by using flash power. Its all experimenting. Sometimes it turns out good, sometimes better luck next time. Thank you all for liking the shot.
