I think the picture looks pretty nice, I just had my A70 resting on a guard rail next to a highway, and i set the exposure to 1 second and snapped it just as a car was coming. I was experimenting with evaluative white balance, trying to get interesting results, and I think it's pretty interesting, if nothing else...
//jonbuder.fotopic.net/ - The picture I mean should be at/near the top of the list. |

I like it. Especially the rich colour and slight tilt to the composition. Good Job and I look forward to seeing more of your work.
BTW, your site is VERY slow to load.

I just tried MadMan2K's site and it seemed to load very fast on my dsl line.

I just took a peek at your photo madman2k..that is too cool! The colors are great..I love how the slower shutter speed allows that glow to the stars. Great shot, and by the way I am on dial-up and your photo loaded super fast for me.

Nice capture. You chose a good time of day for it - I much prefer streaked light shots taken at dusk as there is more ambient light to retain interest in the shot and the risk of overexposure and glare is reduced.
I like the subtle highlights in the crash barrier too.

Really cool shot, Jon. I like how the car sorta looks like a comet (you don't see the individual lights). The blue is great, too. Nice job.

I do enjoy this kind of stuff, so here are some of my long-exposure outtakes from the Urban challenge:

I like your shots Jon. Was that Hendrix who got his head ripped off? |

Tough call on your challenge post. When you shoot such fine stuff, how do you choose?! I gave your original urban shot an 8, but this one I like even better.

I've only ever "tried" it once, and that was a mistake. I was actually trying to take a night-time panoramic shot in Cheddar Gorge, but cars kept on driving by.

Incredibly simple, yet incredibly cool. Very crisp and clear. I could see a slight variant of this as a Nike ad.

That mistake is better then some of our real shots.

Especially sweet if Nike ever get into car tyre manufacture - you could be in the money! Great shot Ben.
Thanks all for the comments and faves on my urban shots too.

Thanks for all the comments. I love that shot with the double-decker bus (I think) going past, it's just plain cool. |
