The life of a trucker is not glamorous; however, there is something about the solitude of being on the open road all day that some find fascinating.

For husband-and-wife photographers James Tribble and Tracey Mancenido, that fascination is enough to compel them to give the life of a trucker a try, and document their experience along the way.

The result is a [series of genuinely breathtaking photos](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/still-life-1) that really capture the sometimes lonely late-nights and eerie early mornings that the life of a trucker holds. The series will premiere on September 9th, 2010 at the [Sasha Wolf Gallery](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/paul-anthony-smith) in NYC.
