[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
I took this a few nights ago. At first I was a little angry because I had tried to time it so no cars were coming by, but I kind of liked the way it turned out when I saw it! I took this at 2130 U.S. EST. Let me know what you think and feel free to add workshops.

PP:
Played a little with lighting and colors.

No more points today... (all over!) :-)))
Remember : :-)))

Great capture - I really like the effect of the lights of the car streaked across the image. Nice composition, point of view and perspect. Perhaps a little noise in the sky area.. but I like the colours and how the sunlight is hitting the trees by the road.

Nice captrue, I like the colors, and I always like the look of the car lights.

I love this. Great sky tonality and the streaks just give this and added touch of interest. Very well executed.

I believe there's no workshops needed here Adam!
I realy love this image. the deep blue of the sky... it almost looks as if it's daytime... ;-)
In fact the stripes of the carlights give the image some "motion" and it does very well.
I was just wondering if you have tried a second time?? After all it is digital photography eh?

Anyways.. I realy like your entry! it's a great one!

Cheers,

Hi,

I dont think a WS is needed here.
Photo is great, nice long exposure which nicely matches the sky and moons.

Great shot!
It looks very surrealistic, like from Star Wars or something - two moons. Unusual view from the Earth.

Nice shot. Sometimes its the things that aren't supposed to be there that make these night shots all the better. It would have been cool to get the tail-lights streaking all the way to the horizon, but I think it worked well enough the way it is. If you had waited a bit longer, you could have avoided the bright twilight spot to the west, and had more definition from the sky full of stars. Overall though, I like it; you did well with the exposure and the white balance, and it looks pretty good.

I love how the color turned out on this one. I especially like looking at the sky, it almost looks like there is a second moon and makes me feel like I'm looking at a photograph form another planet!

the sky is fantastic
