Went with my dad (hoddsson) from the airport in Stockholm to my home town Örebro and we stopped at this runestone... Waiting for cars to drive by I asked him to turn on the ligts on the car in the background wich gave us this nice effect on the stone.

I am very happy with this pic and I hope it does good.

Very nice, perhaps (and this is just a suggestion) it would have worked better if you had moved a little to the right so that the road was just on the right side of the rune stone instead of going behind it like that but just a suggestion. Like the tones in it and the sky, gives it a very "otherworldly" feel. Would have given it a 7 if I had voted on this challenge.

Good attempt at a fantasy world with the times exposure headlight trail and low-saturation colors. Use of the rule of thirds adds interest. Looks like a juxtaposition of old and new. The lighting at the bottom of the monument is curiously interesting.

Telephone poles and wires generally are distracting items. The should probably be removed from this compostion. They destroy the illusion of a fantasy world. The composition would be stronger if there were something in the lower left. The white spot over on that side is distracting.

great photo idea. some comments: this is an advanced editing challenge, and unless i misunderstand the rules, you are allowed to remove unsightly things like power lines. with some saturation/levels adjustments, this would be an awesome shot

This is a very cool picture. The lighting is beautiful and the contrast of the cepia tones with the car light trail is so pretty.

Intriguing idea. Like it. The lighting is a little flat, though.
