Shot in the style of Vietnam- era war photojournalists like Larry Burrows, capturing the gritty reality of conflict. A Range Rover L322 struggles through an active battlefield, its exterior coated in mud and battle- worn scratches. Soldiers in olive drab uniforms and helmets surround the vehicle, some taking cover behind it, while others blur with motion as they move through the chaos. Smoke rises in the background, partially veiling destroyed equipment and scattered debris. Flames flicker in the distance, adding a sense of urgency. The vehicle’s tires churn through dirt and rubble, emphasizing its resilience in the harsh environment. The photo is taken with a 35mm film camera using high- quality color film like Kodachrome, delivering natural tones and deep contrast. Midday sunlight casts sharp shadows and metallic highlights on the soldiers’ gear and the Range Rover’s rugged body. The camera is held at chest level, providing a grounded and direct perspective. Peripheral elements are indistinct, veiled by smoke, while the vehicle remains the focal point, with a wide aperture (f/2. 8–f/4) creating a subtle background blur. Subtle film grain adds authenticity, evoking the raw feel of war reportage. The white balance matches natural daylight, avoiding artificial warmth or coolness. The framing and lighting highlight the tension and chaos, creating a vivid yet untheatrical depiction of the battlefield
