Trucking in South America
By Todd Dills

This truckstop scene in the Atacama desert in Chile was shot by Brazilian photographer Igor Alecsander.

In the course of researching Truckers News' December edition feature on trucking industries around the world, I came across the photo work at one Igor Alecsander's main website (igoralecsander.com) and couldn't help but notice that, yes, long-haul tractors from across South America appeared in stunning fashion throughout. Turns out, Alecsander's a Brazilian native in his 20s who, he says, "always wanted to get a big truck and go hauling, but for reasons of destiny the opportunity did not arise." He got other road experience on his own as a photographer. In addition to the truckstop scene pictured here, shot in the Atacama desert in the north of Chile, his work is showcased extensively in a Flickr gallery and in various galleries at his main site. For links to photos, the rest of the story, and more of the singular, odd, outrageous or outright humorous parts of trucking visit the Channel 19 blog.
