 Shot on my way to the airport to pick up customers visiting from the States. It was the day after the first BIG snowstorm and it took me 3 1/2 hours to cover a distance that normally takes 50min! Let's just say I got PLENTY of time to take pictures and this truly is a "slice of life" of my Dec. 4.

PP was crop, curves, acidify and noise filter, reduced opacity and sharpened. Then added a "grungy" border to emphasize the gritty feeling.

The grungy look sure is fitting here. I like the composition, it makes me feel as if I as sitting in traffic along with you.

The PP on this is good, but I really like how you used the overpass to frame the shot.

I like how the overpass cuts through thge image in contrast to the straight lines of the traffic.

The leading lines are amazing, giving this a lot of dynamic. I'd love to see this image in really large.

Wonderful shot. I love the crop; it works well with the sweep of the overpass.

Interesting how there are no cars coming the other way.

The PP is nice indeed.
That overpass really makes the image for me. Without it I think it might have been a tad boring.

Wow, what a drive you had! I like the pp, although it seems cropped a bit tight vertically.

I really like this composition and light. The echo of shape in the bridge and trees is really neat and makes for a strong image.

Love the perspective with the bridge. The brake lights make the shot. Grey grungy days are tough to shoot, but you did a great job with the feel of the day.
