The intersection of West Broadway and Cambie in Vancouver, on a cold winter evening. In the distance the Cambie Bridge, some of the buildings of downtown Vancouver, and fresh snow on the North Shore mountains can be seen. The lights of the Grouse Mountain ski resort are visible at the top right of the photo.
This shot was taken at around 4:30pm, so the rush hour traffic along this, one of the major routes in and out of downtown Vancouver, was starting to build up. A 2.5 second exposure captured the light trails from the cars, as well as some ghostly pedestrians as they cross West Broadway.
Looks great viewed large!
Edit: For Vancouverites, this photo has been published in The Georgia Straight for the week 19th-26th December 2013 -- pick up a free copy from a street box near you!

Fabulous. There is so much interesting going on in this shot, and the details in each section are as clear as can be. Loving the light trails that take us into the shot.
Even with the Wendy's sign and the jewelry billboard, this is MAGICAL! I love how you can see the resort way up there on the mountain. To think...all the people that were up there in that gorgeous place.
