#020 Busy Traffic

I took a very similar shot yesterday but I selected Claudia's note just because it was more about my day.
I did like the traffic shot so I went back and reshot it today. Must admit I slightly prefer yesterdays as there was a little bit more traffic and the sky a nicer colour (Even if it is city light pollution).
I really wanted a dark blue sky but I was just a little bit late.
Its only about 5 mins from my house so I can try again another day
Here is yesterdays shot.

Canon EOS 20D ,Canon EF 24-85mm f/3.5-4.5 USM
6s f/11.0 at 48.0mm iso100 full exif

other sizes: small medium original auto

I don't know, John. I like the sky in the other one.. but I like the darkness of it in this image plus I do prefer the traffic flow in this image.. more streamlined.. Well done - both of them

mmmmm - I'm out nights too... got this image of PADers on every corner, tripods and delayed exposures... worrying!

Actually like this one better than yesterday's - the lights in the background are clearer and the bus/lorry lights add a bit more to the trails.

I can't resist light trail shots. This is a good one because of the bend in the road, but I agree that being there a little earlier would make it even better.
