I forgot to add... this was taken while driving through the tunnel at 35mph with the camera shutter wide open.

Thanks for the comments Shu and Traveller!

Traveller, this is a tunnel on the Colonial Parkway in Williamsburg VA. It was built in the 30's and what makes it unique is it has a significant curve at the start where most tunnels are straight shots through. This abstract plays on the strength of the camera over the human eye. The lines going across are the car's defroster element on the rear window.

I may redo this shot..the camera I was using at the time had some limitations. Cheers, LC
