    Great shot, especially with the silhouette at the end.

    Does that include the inside of my car as well?
    Theoretically that is not anywhere on the road it is everywhere on the road.

    Cool shot Chris, awesome result. Have tried a bit of DUIP myself but I have a tendancy to turn the steering wheel in the direction that myhead points so the shots are usually of screaming pedestrians running for their lives.

  • transmute

    transmute

    hehehe Kalb, If I hear screeching tyres behind me I’ll get the hell out of the way!

    That is amazing! I know the bridge and when i drive over it i always think it would be cool to capture the deep vortex feeling it gives me but have never been able to get it. You’ve got it and it’s awesome!

    my favourite bridge, this and the talking one.

    nice shot. gives me a speedy feeling. it always reminded me of a danish pastry, but now that you have entitled it so aptly, i must say. sits so much better with me than a pastry infact.

    hugs

    While I wouldn’t advocate driving with one’s knees, I love the abract quality of this as well as the linear repetition. It reminds me of the old saying “the light at the end of the tunnel” – it also reminds me something of an old TV program that involved a time-tunnel. This one is really visually pleasing.

    .......the light looks great…you must have been going pretty …slow ..to catch it….
    ...looks like a bit of an eye at the end …
