This is a final entry for Get Pushed week 98. My partner this week, Deborah @debseibly, challenged me: " How about a concept - 'through the glass'. Any subject that you think fits the theme. Hope you enjoy the challenge."
I wanted to do 'Through the glass darkly', so here it is a fun finish to this challenge and - as a bonus - it's also an entry for ETSOOI 35 - Skies!
I'm glad to see you were stopped at a traffic light when you took this! I've actually takena few on empty roads when I was driving -- surprised taking pictures while driving isn't against the law like texting and using a cell phone. Maybe not many people do it!.
Okay I have to chime in here because someone gave me heck for taking a photo while I was driving. Won't name names. As for the picture I love it. Playing in Lightroom this morning and beginning to see how you process some of these.
What a great image, perfect for your challenge, I have spent two hours in an almost stationary traffic jam out of Arramanche today, should have got my camera out obviously!
@joansmor OK, I fess up... but I was stationary at the lights. You were driving at night, on the autoroute, in heavy traffic, snowing heavens hard and slush all over the road... I rest my case ;-)
@judithdeacon You have my commiserations - I pondered going and then decided that I would see more from the comfort of my armchair parked on front of the TV. Hope you had a great time though.
Richard I too felt something was wrong but couldn't work out, then I read the comment about being on the wrong side of the road. Great image and processing ( except for the hand)! It looks like a very threatening sky.
@jocasta You're not kidding Joy - you should see the state of our lane after the monster storm two nights ago! The lane was literally a muddy river several inches deep and I only kept it out of the house by repeatedly brushing it away like some demented water dervish... and this at 01.30 am!
Wow, this is great, Richard. Very witty!. I love the processing and certainly the point of view. Personally, I am envious of the dark and stormy sky I am thinking you had fun with it. @vignouse
@debseibly Thank you Deborah, yes it was a fun little OTT exercise but of my three responses to your challenge, this is the one I like the least...
but I have learned since I have been on here, that my taste is rather suspect!
Thank you, I had fun doing my three photos.
