Heading Home by bkbinthecity

Heading Home

I have on a couple of occasions posted some shots of the early morning traffic downtown as people were heading to work. So today I thought I would try to capture the rush hour traffic as people are heading home.
I took this shot from the pedway that crosses from City Centre Shopping Centre to Manulife Place looking east on to 102 Avenue
Definitely looks like rush hour. Lots of traffic there. I love your pov.

I am glad you shared it. There is quite a bit of traffic! Great that you took the perspective from the pedway.

Pedways give a great POV-- excellent idea :)

It is a great place to get a good overhead shot! nice one!
October 26th, 2012  
What a great shot, Brian. Sure shows the rush hour traffic very well.
October 26th, 2012  
Brian, this shot reminds me why I live in Northwest Montana. I lived in large urban areas for many years and do not miss the traffic. Great capture.

this is tame compared to toronto rush hour. or maybe it is that the drivers in edmonton are much more graceful and courteous than the drivers around here. very nice, brian.
October 26th, 2012  
Cool

Our Freeways are usually bumper to bumper, nice capture tho Brian.
October 26th, 2012  
Now that's a city shot!! But yes, this looks less trafficky than NYC!! And the cars are so nicely spaced! lol Around here it is truly bumper to bumper!

Good street shot - whats the smokey bit on the right? Gas from that bus?
October 26th, 2012  
I love streetscapes....Yes what is the flare on the right?

Nice perspective from the pedway. Great capture of the traffic and the puff of smoke from the bus!
