Hi, everyone. The 24-hour period has passed and it is time to declare the winner.  
With so many good entries, it is difficult to pick the best one.

After a careful analysis and deliberation I have decided that **Elmer\_J.Fudd** wins with _“Now, where is that needle…?”_ This caption made me chuckle and I also like the way it evokes the ethos of the world in the picture, despite the presence of pickups and cranes.

Congratulations, @Elmer_J.Fudd! Please post the next picture to caption. 🙂
