Taken in downtown Seattle along 5th Avenue, approx. 2:38am sometime in summer of 2001. Activated shutter release cable with the shutter on bulb mode for approx. 5 seconds while approaching an intersection where there had been a motor vehicle accident just moments before (it appeared that someone may have run a red light; may have been alcohol-related, there appeared to be at least one injury). One emergency vehicle was at the scene. Please excuse my dirty windshield.
quite unusual, interesting! Yes, this pic needs the explaination you give, but thehn it becomes clear and understandable; it's a tale made by light! regards - marco
There's little I love taking more than through-the-windshield shots. This one's much more interesting than any of mine-- it looks as though you're going through a tunnel, instead of down an open avenue. Nice choice of shutter speed and b&w medium.
The only thing you might consider doing is making the rearview a solid black, a stronger shape of the light lines extending forward of the car. That would also help suggest that the car's hurtling out of darkness, perhaps giving the photo a bit more sinister feel.
