[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
Well when I uploaded this photo, the first thing that came to my mind was, "Oh!! this is probably the exit that Diana (Cloverstar on TL) would probably take if she were to drive from Toronto downtown without paying the Toll on ETR 407". Well this should explain the title of this photo.

What you see over here is West bound highway 401, the busiest highway in Canada. With 10 lanes on each side for most of its way through Toronto and In distance you can see an exit for 410 Brampton (going towards Diana's home) and another exit for QEW Niagara Falls.

Cheers for now .... I hope you like it and any suggestions on PP would be welcome as I am not really that happy with the end product over here.

Hi Sarju,
Very nice, love the red stripes. the long exposure is great, adn the single parking car makes all the difference.

Hi Sarju

Perhaps I'd burn in the highlights top left' & increase contrast slightly? A good time exposure' & not easy to do. Well done!

hi Sarju,
great Nocturnal Photo..very nice colours..well done

Hi Sarju,
a good capture of this busy spot. I really like those sparkling spots like stars (the lamps), and the red lines like lava ... the lonely car on the left and the sign on the right brings me back to reality though.
As you said that any suggestions are welcome, I made a workshop for you, maybe it gives you an idea ...
tfs and greetings

I think your end result is good as the lights make it really look busy. In fact if you took the photo during the day, it would probably look like a bloody parking lot. LOL

DAM

cool effect of lights.. strange way . bravo . greatings from italy

Ah yes, Sarju. Many a time I have travelled this highway. How nice of you to mentioned me in your note. This certainly is a busy highway. The long exposure was great for the trail lights from the cars, but perhaps a bit too long for the overexposed parts. Keep on experimenting.

Great timed exposure! What's with the stalled car on the left, LOL!!

Good work, you are inspiring me.

Alli

HI Sarju, what a good analogy you made for Cloverstar. Very well done. I love all the lines made by the cars. You had a good spot.

Very well done and good light.

Take care, Yan

Great exposure... I think my car is there too. LOL
Hope all is well. You haven't posted in a while.
I'm back and I hope you will too.

Above the blue sign, a bit to the right, is my house.
Thank you Sarju

George

Possibly, one of these red smudges is my car.
Hey, you'll never know LOl LOl
