Default "glorious" life of the spy-photographers

Pictures are taken by the spy-photographers who camp out in northern Sweden near Arjeplog in the winter, to catch the manufacturers new secret models. -41C is well...-41.8F if I'm not wrong

I'm used to the cold living in the Rockies and all, but that just looks like it would be miserable. I'd like to have that job someplace warmer.

Lots of these photographers get threatend by manufacturers, or they are made great offers to not publish the photo's. IIRC some photographer wrote a book about his life and job.

This is what I saw in Death Valley 2 years ago, it also had a towbar :



Shortly after that, it started raining. Can you imagine that? I travel halfway around the world to see the hottest place, and all I get is some rain and a lousy 35C. :roll:
