A
n image captured while riding as a passenger in a pick-up truck. I suppose the high contrast in the center violates a compositional rule, but I am pleased with it anyway. I used the LucisArt Photoshop plug-in with different settings on several blended layers to add atmosphere and obscure the foreground motion blur.
Although cruising past your subject at high speed may not provide the best conditions for photography, sometimes it is the only way to get a particular shot. Occasionally when traveling the highway, I see something I desire to capture and will double back to find a place to park off the road. But the viewpoint is different, and frequently so is the light, and the resulting images are not what was visualized.
“Above all, it's hard learning to live with vivid mental images of scenes I cared for and failed to photograph. It is the edgy existence within me of these unmade images that is the only assurance that the best photographs are yet to be made.” -Sam Abell
