Featured Picniker – Trevor Reed
Our 14th Featured Picniker is Trevor Reed, head foreman of a three-bay truck wash and detail facility of the largest trucking company in Idaho, aka (in Picnik World Headquarters) “Trucker Dude”. Living in Idaho Falls, Idaho, Trevor grew up in nearby Shelley, Idaho after moving away from the Mt Saint Helens area of Washington as a kid. He’s been working for the same trucking company for 12 years, he was in his high school band, still plays the drums when he gets a chance, and writes science fiction.
We here at Picnik HQ have actually been following his Flickr stream for months, where his photographs of gleaming 18-wheelers, incredibly dirty faces, and wide, “Tatterland” vistas certainly stood out in our Flickr Picnikers group. A lot of his photos are of big trucks with Vibrance effects, but sometimes a little baby in Black & White and Vignette. You get the tough guys looking rugged and mean with HDR-ish over top, but also the tough guys hamming it up with Gooify and Orton-ish. Each picture stands out and it’s obvious that “Trucker Dude” enjoyed taking every one of them. Plus, they actually are really good photographs: well-composed, well-set up, well-lit, well-edited, and each has a personality, tells a story, and actually is worth a thousand words. So we couldn’t wait to get in touch and make him our 14th Featured Picniker!
Picnik: When did you hear about Picnik, and when was that?
Trevor: I honestly can’t remember. Someone had recommended it to me over on Flickr, I believe, bout a year and half ago. Been kind of an addict ever since.
How has Picnik changed your life?
Picnik has opened many new doors for me that were previously unavailable. There were lots of things I wanted to do with a photograph and could not before I found Picnik. Now that I have a better grasp of the terrain it’s still like a grade school show and tell. From day to day I find something new I can do with it I had not ever considered trying before. Even to this day I’m still finding new ways to manipulate shots I had not considered before. A new toy I can afford and stimulate my imagination as it were.
How did you get interested in photography?
It was an on line friend of mine that drew me into photography. A professional based out of Portland OR. as I understand it. Originally I had started shooting pictures around my place of work with the intention of showing a few driver and blogger buddies of mine a different perspective of the trucking industry. When he (Sean) took notice of a few of my better photos he began giving me pointers and tips. From there it had kind of become a personal challenge, to see what I could do with his tips and my then itty bitty Kodak Easy Share digital. Later he had invited me into a photo competition he was hosting, and the entire experience just kind of sucked me in. Soon after the competition I’d upgraded to a high quality camera, and set out, bent on learning how to use the new camera, and ways to manipulate (like Picnik) my photos into resembling more what it was I saw in my head while setting up a shot.
What do you use to shoot with?
Currently I am using a Canon Digital Rebel XTi, fitted with a 18-55mm lens.
You (hilariously) call your children “Heathen Progeny”. Explain.
I was trying to think of a story to put that into better context, and for the life of me I can’t seem to settle on any single one (Though there was that little toilet plunger incident yesterday morning that now seems somewhat and disturbingly lodged in the forefront of my mind). I guess the best way to say it is; Gosh, they sure are an awful lot like their dad when he was their age.
South-eastern Idaho is not a place many associate with cramped, claustrophobic views. How does living in such an incredibly wide-open space help or hinder your photography?
That’s an interesting question. In the last five years the population here has quite nearly doubled. Idaho Falls is still a far cry from anything that one might consider a thriving metropolis, but it is nothing like I remember growing up. Lots of development, lots of expansion. It’s still a small town that depends largely on agriculture and the government nuclear reactor/test facility out on the Arco desert to survive, but I honestly have started feeling a little crowded the past few years. As far as a hindrance, I can’t really think of much off the top of my head. I do enjoy looking at photographs of big city skylines, so called urban jungles, and other images of that nature, but as much as I like them, there is no way for me to duplicate them. I suppose there fascination to me revolves largely around them being such a foreign landscape. They simply don’t exist here. We’ve got kids zipping around on bullet bikes and souped up Subaru’s, but as far as sky scrapers the closet thing that compares is our water tower. As for help. My favorite photograph subject is of course big rigs. And honestly nothing says “Wide open truckin” like the back drops I can find around here. A few minutes driving up to Swan Valley, or out onto Antelope Flats, and I have nothing but a perfect back drop of rolling farm fields, woodlands, or snow capped mountains to add to the entire experience.
What did you like most about Picnik when you first started using it, and what do you like the most about it now?
What I liked about it first. Options. I remember the first time I tried it I immediately noticed and clicked on Orton-ish. My response had been something like “Holy crap, that is cool.” I’d be lying if is said my eyes did not glow a bit when I looked up to see just what it would cost for a premium membership. What I like most about it now is, well, Options. I’ve been using Picnik for a good long while now, and it never seems like there is that feeling of being backed into the proverbial “I’ve milked this one for all it’s worth” corner. Even now there are several options available that I have not yet tried.
Your photos vary mostly between portraits and trucks. What’s easier to photograph: hardened truckers or speeding 10-ton big-rigs?
The big rigs are quite possibly the single most photographer friendly subjects I have ever shot at. Typically they are pretty easy to please, and they don’t normally complain. If I’m trying to do something like a long exposure and I say “Okay, hold still”, they will usually do it. If they are out on the road eating asphalt, it’s still not to hard to get them to cooperate. We both know where the highway is, and we are both pretty convinced that the rig is going to follow that line. It’s especially easy when they have been left in my care (and I guess that’s just one of the perks to my job). On any given work day a number of rigs will simply be dropped off and left for me to run through the bays. This presents me with an opportunity to park them wherever I see fit once we have cleaned them up. If a few pictures happen in the aftermath, well…Who’s going to mind. And I think for the most part the drivers are pretty easy to get along with as well.

May 27th, 2009 at 12:27 am
Hey there, that’s funny reading this since I lived in the Shelley/Idaho Falls area for years. But I wanted to share my appreciation of your pictures, very fascinating. My favorite is the one inside the truck, captured and edited nicely. Picnik is such a wonderful addiction!
May 28th, 2009 at 11:04 am
Idaho, represent! I’m originally from Northern Idaho and while I grew up with every intention of leaving and never coming back, I find myself missing it daily. My heart swelled with pride at seeing an Idaho man as the new featured Picniker. Trevor’s photos are beautiful and inspirational! Kudos & congratulations, Trevor!
May 28th, 2009 at 11:24 am
sorry there is nothing i can say… but…. these pics are SO creepy!
May 28th, 2009 at 3:03 pm
WOW!! – These pics are AMAZING!! Congratulations Trevor!! …. AMVZGIRL
May 28th, 2009 at 6:29 pm
I have always said you were a talented wee laddie, it’s nice to know there are others out there that think the same. Congratulations on being featured. You do have such a unique perspective with photography.
As for ‘heathen progeny’… I do understand as I refer to mine as ‘demon spawn’… And it fits.
May 29th, 2009 at 5:47 am
I love your pics. I truly enjoy looking at what we in the biker world call “real people”. The faces of America that keep the whole thing moving.

They are raddd broooo (:
June 19th, 2009 at 11:50 am
how do you make the truck like dissapear?
June 20th, 2009 at 9:25 am
Thank you and all. It’s been a real treat and an honor.
I do apologize for being a little late on this, I’ve been trying to figure out how to comment back to folk on a personal level, and it seems I’ve not had any luck, so I’m just going to fill in the blanks here as best I can.
Jacob: I’m not sure there is a whole lot I could offer in the realm of teachings. I’m really not sure what I’m doing myself, lol. My best advice would be to start out with a simple digital camera (something not to spending, and easy to operate). I’d also recommend spending as much time as possible over on flickr. I picked up a lot just visiting with professionals and studying their work. Lastly. Let the imagination go wild. One mans garbage could be another mans treasure.
Maggie: The shot of the red truck. I originally shot it with a longer exposure, and a low Av. Something like four or five seconds. I can’t quite remember what I used in the post process. HDR-ish, and some contrast tweaking.
Joe G: DUDE! I was beginning to wonder if I was the Picniker in the entire state. And just right down the road no less. If you’ve got a flickr account I love to take a look at your photo stream. As for competitions. I’m at a loss there. I did a little photo competition with a few friends a while back, but that is literally all it was. A hand full of online buddies getting together for nothing more then the prize of bragging rights. I’ve kind of been asking myself the same question lately.
BransGran: The only Jackson trans. rig I can think of off the top of my head is a fuel tanker out of the Boise area, that we wash once and awhile.
Sam:…That wouldn’t be “I went to school with you, Sam.” by any chance?
Jayde: Thanks. Always cool to meet home town local. Maybe we should get together and shoot Spud Day this year, lol. Tha’d be a hoot. Seems like I’m always working that Saturday, thou.
Deli: I set the camera for a longer exposure. About three or four second I think, and then shot as the truck began to move.
June 20th, 2009 at 5:12 pm
Hey,
I’ve been using Picnik for a couple years now and tonight as I was editing my photos I noticed you’re in IF. I’ve have lived there (and Shelley) for a few years and actually married Scott Cook from Shelley 8 years ago. We’re in Boston now and thought what a crazy world when I saw your pictures featured. They are very well composed and fun to look at! Great job!
Ya, we do have city skylines here, but you can’t beat potato fields at sunrise, the barns and the spud tug!
June 20th, 2009 at 11:08 pm
Trevor – amazing shots! Congrats in being featured – it was a great article and I love your work!
June 21st, 2009 at 5:57 am

Like the work!
August 12th, 2009 at 5:49 am
I’ve been a photojournalist for many years and have to say that your work is tremendous! I love your trucking work… but for sheer “draw me in with a million questions,” the image of the face in the winter face mask wins the prize. The wacky-looking dude is brilliant, too. Great effects. So I’m brand new to picnik and you’ve given me terrific inspiration to experiment! Thanks for that! You would be fun to interview – very articulate answers! :)
August 12th, 2009 at 7:43 pm
WOW…is awsome. I love thats pictures
August 13th, 2009 at 8:10 am
I moved to Kansas from Idaho almost 3 years ago, and it was interesting to me to find someone from Idaho Falls. (I have a granddaughter, and 2 great granddaughters in Idaho Falls) This photo program is new to me, and I am looking forward to learning how it will help me. I am working on the new county website and have found it very time consuming, but must be done.
August 17th, 2009 at 7:27 pm

OMG!!!!!! These are the best pikniks EVER! You have a rel talent for this art. It’s deep and i’m soooo glad you are able to share it with all of us on the cyber community. I can’t express in words what your artwork really means. keep reaching……. You have inspired me, especially for this holiday season:)
Thanks again

You are amazing. Kudos, and lots of them. I definitely need lots more practice. :)

awsome pics.!
December 21st, 2009 at 12:06 pm
WOW. that guy made me say WOW about Ortonish. I have used many of the picnik plugins liberally–but!– i see that someone really “went to town” with the capabilities of just one “brush”. gotta add my personal hearty “wtg”
December 21st, 2009 at 7:20 pm

December 22nd, 2009 at 6:22 pm
Trevor -
this is some GOOD STUFF you do on picnik. i’m not a heavy picniker myself but i should be now after looking at your stuff. being on the road gives you the best opportunities of things and places to view.
I think picnik has made a lot of ppl aware of Orton since i’m sure nobody knew of him and his techinque ever before.

Hello Trevor!
I´m sitting here in litle Sweden and surf in on your site from “Picnik”, I get from a friend.
My english is not so good…I hope you understand what I mean anyway=)
Usully I dont write to people and NOT to english-people because Ï´m to bad at english grammar. Thanks for translate dictionary=)
But I have to write a small words to you because I get overwhelm by your photos. I must say I like your pictures a lot! Dusty and from another winkels etc.
I like trucks and work by myself whith spareparts on Volvo Trucks workshop in Gävle 20 miles norh by Stockholm and my wonderful fiancé and best friend Stefan who worked as truck and busmechanic also on Volvo, but in Söderhamn.
Take care of your family.
I have two girls 7 and 10 years old,
Greetings from a cold Sweden

January 11th, 2010 at 12:30 pm
Amazing, The way you capture the light and The Mood of the picture is amazing. I truely love it, The camera your using is great, around how much do they cost, im abit skint at the moment.
Keep them going, They make me smile ;) Beth Holmes x

fantastic edits and photos, trevor. 2nd to last photo reminds me of the song “asphalt cowboy” by jason aldean.
January 20th, 2010 at 10:09 pm
Wow, great photos!
My fav is the one with the red truck in the bay, where its “see-through”.
I dont know if its proper ettiquete to do so, but i was wondering if someone could share how to do that kind of effect. im newer here and have been playing around for days trying to achieve something like that, but no luck.
Thanks, and again, these look awesome.
January 21st, 2010 at 3:49 pm

January 23rd, 2010 at 9:41 am

January 28th, 2010 at 9:25 pm
I can’t seem to take my eyes off of the second to last picture.
It just captures the moment so well :D
Great Work!
January 29th, 2010 at 5:30 am

You realy have talent!!…. CONGRATULATIONS (=*
February 9th, 2010 at 6:15 am
Hey, neat photos! My father used to be a truck driver. I lived in Boise, Idaho for 11 years. I miss it there. I don’t know if you’ve seen it, but there’s a really cool site called “deviantart.com” where you can submit art for free or get a membership.
February 9th, 2010 at 4:06 pm
You have such amazing photos! Keep up the work? Oh Yeah, is that HDRish on the picture of the dog? I LOVE IT! Have fun!!
February 10th, 2010 at 1:43 pm
Oh my wow.. these are amazing.. I can tell that you like to use HDR =) You could go real far with skills like this.. Keep up the good work
February 11th, 2010 at 8:25 pm
Trevor! Your pictures are awesome! I stumbled on to this sight by accident and was surprised to see your name. IT’s been a long time. I hope your doing well in life and hope to run into you some day.
Your friend from way back, Trent
February 13th, 2010 at 8:14 am
WAT DUH?! GOOD!
February 13th, 2010 at 11:00 am
Your pictures are flawless im getting a Canon Digital Rebel XTi in a few weeks off my mam my friend has it and she says its an unreal camera like and after seeing your shots I know it must be.
February 14th, 2010 at 9:25 am
um….some of these are kinda creepy but the one w/ the girl in the hood is rele cute. FYI…quit photographing u..Ur ugly. kbye!
February 16th, 2010 at 2:20 pm
I love your photos, they are amazing.. :)
February 19th, 2010 at 7:26 pm
@jpizzle
honestly, is that really necessary?
art is art. i don’t think you’ve looked closely at his photographs. they are amazing. they’re creative! and to judge someone because of their appearance, and telling them that they are too ugly to make works of art, is ridiculous. its rude and inconsiderate.
yeah, you’re cool. sike.
love your art.
February 20th, 2010 at 8:22 pm

hi Trevor!
yours phots are amazing! i love the red truck and the dog.. but i like everyone!…
You have very very talent!!…
Bye!
February 26th, 2010 at 8:57 pm
Okay, well it may seem a bit corny when I say, that your photos are amazingly inspirational. I am but the age of twelve, while my dream of becoming a photographer is still in progress. Your photos, in my opinion that is.. Have a meaning behind them, like any photo. Your photos capture the moments that are amazing enough to stand still for a lifetime. I’ve got my whole life ahead of me to be able to take photos, and trust me, as corny as it may sound, I hope my photos eventually get as good as yours.
February 28th, 2010 at 12:22 pm
I loved “255″ picture.
I’m from Spain.. and (Maybe doesn’t sounds original) I’m 13 (It’s actually true LOL*).
I love your art… Specially “360″ picture. It has something…
You are fucking talented.
Cheers from Spain. :)
March 1st, 2010 at 3:48 pm
