TITLE: VERTIGO
Additional Information about pic

This pic was taken at a rest stop on my way to El Paso. It is a view of Las Cruces. I purposely panned the camera to get the blur effect.
The pic title I gave it is "Vertigo"

What does it mean to the viewer, well...

First does it make you empathize with someone who is feeling woozy. Does it give you that sense? Is this worth a thousand words? How to improve? Blah! blah...

Is it framed properly, etc....

Well, I live in New Mexico and that does not look at all like Las Cruces.

As a rock climber I've had my opportunities to experience vertigo; that pic does nothing for me.

Impressions: I see alot of black and some random colored lines.

Sorry, but I just don't think it works.

Hmmm..
Where the hell was I?
I know I was on my way to El Paso, from SD to final destination:Houston.

Sorry, it did not convey what I had hoped. Try again :?

lol, I'm sure the photo is of Las Cruces. I just meant that because of the blur, I can't even tell I'm looking at city lights. It could be a string on a christmas tree for all I know.

I can see what you were trying to do, I just think its a little too much motion for the effect you want.

I don't see the vertigo.

Just a lot of camera shake (or purposeful pan).

Maybe it's just me being over critical.
