I hate it...

Rush hour traffic in Greenville, Delaware (heading towards Wilmington)

Can anyone name a well known person who currently "lives" in this town?
He doesn't sleep here all the time as he has a second home elsewhere.....

Check out other monochromatic Pbasers who are always on the hunt HERE

T minus 235...

Hate traffic too.....really slows ya down! ;)
Brenda17-Mar-2012 21:47
Joe Biden? I definitely don't miss fighting rush hour traffic. Nice reminder of why I don't work full-time anymore! V
Guest 17-Mar-2012 14:22
I agree with you, I hate it too !!!
Pierre17-Mar-2012 11:49
Une très prise de vue de cette situation, très jolie perspective! V
Tom LeRoy17-Mar-2012 07:47
A real jam up here! Lucky to be retired and not have to see this anymore:). Nice shot too, Steph.... Guess it's Du Ponts. V
Kerry Tingley17-Mar-2012 06:54
Or anywhere else! Well depicted here Stephanie.
Guest 17-Mar-2012 06:33
Wonderful capture, great street scene.
Mieke WA Minkjan17-Mar-2012 06:24
wouldn't have a real clue, I do a guess:Mitt Romney!
peak hour traffic becomes every where a headache!
Lieve Snellings17-Mar-2012 03:04
in all cases it looks better to come than to go... :)
Guest 17-Mar-2012 01:41
wonderful tones well the du Pont family must still be there.... how about...Ted Kaufman, DemocraticUnited States Senator
sue anne17-Mar-2012 01:40
Good catch and not my kind of traffic to be stuck in.
Helen Betts16-Mar-2012 23:53
And one lane, too, what a nightmare. Great capture with super toning. V.
Frank Brault16-Mar-2012 22:37
I could not agree with you more. V
Barbara Heide16-Mar-2012 22:02
cool capture! I hate it too...
laine16-Mar-2012 21:54
I'll hazard a guess that it's someone from the political scene...perhaps the President has a country get-away.

I'm so pleased I rarely hit a traffic jam situation.

I think you've hit a nerve here! I join the queue of those hating traffic jams! Drives me batty :-) V
Rick Bricker16-Mar-2012 21:37
Well,as Walter & Christine mentioned here,this is home to many of the Dupont family.It WAs also home to U.S. Military intelligence officer Jim Thompson who disappeared under mysterious circumstances and has never been seen again.Perhaps he and Jimmy Hoffa are BOTH there?...Hmmmmm....oh,by the way,good pic!
carol j. phipps16-Mar-2012 21:33
Bumper to bumper!
Patricia Kay16-Mar-2012 21:32
Hate the rush hour too Steph but you got a great shot of it!...BV
Ed McConnell16-Mar-2012 21:20
I agree.....
Johnny JAG16-Mar-2012 19:59
Nightmare!
Colin Storey16-Mar-2012 19:46
Great view of the queing traffic, superb in mono. v
LynnH16-Mar-2012 19:31
At least it isn't 8 lanes of solid traffic like Houston! I like the line of cars snaking in the same direction (curve) as the arrow sign. Don't know who lives in Greenville... you'll have to tell us tomorrow. V
Guest 16-Mar-2012 19:22
A fantastic capture of this rush hour , love the tones and mood, Well done Steph!!!!
Guest 16-Mar-2012 18:52
I hate cities! V
Laryl16-Mar-2012 17:45
one advantage I have to working at home .. good timing on the shot to show the traffic
rousselziak16-Mar-2012 16:09
I hate too, but nice frame ! -V-
Fong Lam16-Mar-2012 15:19
Great shot of this rush hour traffic..we all hate traffic jams! V
globalgadabout16-Mar-2012 15:03
it depends on which direction you are headed, as oncoming traffic is light...the electricity cables seem to echo the inherent tension of the daily commute...V
Walter Otto Koenig16-Mar-2012 14:52
Great perspective and good choice of focal length and tones. This is Du Pont country.
Guest 16-Mar-2012 14:31
I get road rage.
Margot W16-Mar-2012 14:27
I bet two hours earlier there was no rush hour. Too bad we are all on the same timeline.
Can't think of a single person Stephanie but I bet I'll find out.
Nice to take a shot from a car which isn't whizzing by some point of interest.
J. Scott Coile16-Mar-2012 14:00
More than one second home me thinks...
Ann...16-Mar-2012 13:40
Is that a tram in the distance, where are its rails? It wouldn't pay to be in a hurry.
CM Kwan16-Mar-2012 13:16
Very nice picture, Steph! V
Jim Coffman16-Mar-2012 12:16
Great capture of a traffic jam! I hate them!
Guest 16-Mar-2012 11:37
me too,less traffic on the other side so but than I can see the buses coming, like this shot in monochrome,
John Hamers16-Mar-2012 11:36
Who doesn't hate it !, wonderful tones !! V
zyziza16-Mar-2012 11:31
I can imagine, but very nice frame! v
Yvonne16-Mar-2012 11:29
I always hate the fumes, they stay on long after the peak hour has past. Great shot!
Chris16-Mar-2012 10:52
...the Dupont family...?

You need to come here, chez nous, one car a day gets us wondering if we are about to have visitors!
Martin Lamoon16-Mar-2012 10:50
Wonderful tone, I also hate traffic queues. V
Graeme16-Mar-2012 10:38
Great view of rush hour traffic, Stephanie. Most of the cars seem to be 4x4's as well. V
