 Part of a fun Sunday for me...one challenge turned into 2. Out and about for the color on color, I thought about this one for gold. Earlier in the day I was hoping for a geat sunset in the background of the golden arches, but clouds rolled in around 8 pm. So I tried this one...proof I need a remote control shutter release.

Post challenge. Good learning experience. Unfortunately, I never even thought about hitting the self-timer and waiting. Oh well. I hope this is my lowest score. Little effort and poor quality. Got what it deserved.

I think a tripod would have helped this one out, it looks the golden-arches are moving.

actually, this could be anywhere in the world these days...a little on the blurry side, perhaps overexposed...good light trails though

good idea using the "golden arches", but you should have gotten in closer to focus more on the subject. as it stands, with the wide angle shot and the centered composition, i found my eye searching for the subject even though it was right before me.

I was going to do that. The Golden Arches. I am glad someone did.

haha, I'd thought of the golden arches, but I couldn't think of an artistic way to shoot them, good job... to bad they weren't a bit sharper
