Geeez! It was as busy out there tonight as it was on Saturday last year. At 9PM there were two lanes of traffic streching 100 yards back from the stop light! It totally ruined the angle that I wanted to shoot with Duggan's bar in the background. I'll have to make another plan for Tuesday.

Here's another Shell station "atmosphere" shot for you, Marie! I hope you like it.

Nice T-Bird. I missed the Bird & got the driver.

And, yes, there was a lot of lead on the road on Monday, too.

Don't normally comment on pictures on here as I'm a bit of a lurker, but these grabbed my attention and not for good reasons tbh.

#1 Neither here nor there tbh, would have done with being darker and pulling some more colour out of the sky.

#2 Missed the bird and got the driver??? You nearly missed the car!!!

#3 Think the bloke on the bike is looking for a focus point like everyone else is.

#4 Strange crop, you even managed to crop the back of the car off.

#5 Think she needs to turn the vibrator off, it's made your picture all fuzzy

#6 Again looking for a point of focus

#7 Yep it's something new, a shot with something in focus

#8 Lead is quite a soft metal, bit like the picture.

Sorry but the only thing these would have seen is the trash.

hey step back and think about how you critique peoples photos.. your not only insulting them but the people in them who cant defend themselves? Sit back and just read posts...

Frank- i will agree that these are not your best but some interesting looking cars there..

I've got to agree with r-m but not the way he said it, these aren't good. #1 exposure is only good of the sky and the yellow MOPAR up front is a rust bucket. Missed the rear ends in 3 of them. Better luck tonight!

Wow, "Chunky DA", you must have X-ray eyes. as bad as you claim the exposure is and you can see the rust on the Duster. Amazing. I rather like the pic, and the atmosphere is conveyed to us thru the pic. Nicely done.

I think frank either loves the challenge of evening shots or thinks daylight shots are too easy ;)

rm, Define "Those groups". Is that one where flaming and bashing are fun? This group is constructive and supportive of posters. I have gotten some very good tips and advice from these People. I know that the few posts I have put up are not as good as they should be but I have not been ridiculed at all. Maybe You should take the time to look at the posts and critiques are done. To Frank keep up the good work.

I have a feeling some of the blur was intentional here.

i've been here almost 5 years and never once seen a fight on here (and i frequent different subforums, not just transportation) between anyone...

Who mentioned "groups"?? Ok take out the sarcasm from my post and then re-read it. I'm sorry but how can you say keep up the good work? These are not good work and as stated earlier they would have gone straight into trash. Have a read of what other people have said. (bottom 3 quotes)

Let's just hope the evening shots improve then.

You reckon?? Glad you used the word "SOME" here there is just way too much.
