Street Light

Taken from the rooftop of my apartment building looking down on the

stop light.

Thanks Jonathan - this is a pretty good picture. How long did you end up exposing this one? I really like the detail in the traffic lights with the washed car-lights below. This would look very nice blown up for a big print.

when i first looked i thought the cars in motion were dusty tire tracks..i think i would have rather seen a car stopped at the light,framed to make an interesting composition

I really like this image. At first I felt it was too centric, esp with the stop light smack in the middle. But the light trails are perfectly assymetrically balanced (if that's possible!). I wonder what this would look like in color, since the light trails would appear yellow, red, and white, and the glow from the stoplight would provide some interest too, esp with a slight haze to allow from glowing light beams. Also try this after a rain, since the street will be wet and may provide added depth by reflecting the light trails.

 

Good job!

theres kind of alot going on, i wonder what it would look like in color
