Truck Passing - Hello Goodbye

Continued from http://365project.org/mcsiegle/365/2015-01-03

...so this time, instead of blurred wheels in motion, I got whole vehicles blurred. This one was a large truck. I have other shots that are more recognizable as cars, but with background less in focus, or vehicle mostly leaving the frame. So you get the truck -- very briefly. Just hello and goodbye.

For the get pushed challenge given me by @stephomy to "slow down your shutter speed and capture some blurred movement."
@stephomy I gave it a shot. This is what you get. Maybe when it's warmer I could find something stationary (moving but stationary!) to set up a tripod and aim my camera at. The gulls moved in and out of frame too quickly. The cars and trucks at least weren't swooping up and down. Hee hee.

Hi Mary. Thanks for the challenge. I look forward to trying to capture details in color and BW. For your challenge, create a photo that captures a sense of suspense.

@stacey_mac Thanks. Hmmm...sense of suspense. I'll see what I can come up with.

@nanderson @plainjaneandnononsense @fugitivemoments @hjbenson @stephomy @jborrases Thanks so much for your comments. I do actually like the way it looks. It just bummed me out a bit that I had to fall back on cars again.

Thanks for the follow a while ago, you will have realised that i am the worst "commentor" on 365, my apologies, but there just don't seem to be enough hours in the day! :-)
