10th: Television Traffic
by Denise

Not getting out much these days!!!! The Oakland-Bay Bridge is closed East to West for the entire Labor Day weekend and causing horrendous traffic jams everywhere. I saw this last night on the news and just couldn't help myself!!! The exposure wasn't the best so I applied some PS filters to distort the image a bit.

Very resourceful Denise! You're getting pretty good with those filters; I like your results here. Very clever and well done!

Clever capture, Denise. And I grew up in Strawberry, which is just off Tiburon Blvd :-). Helen

Very cool filter effect - it looks like there's really thick smog! You were smart to stay home and out of that traffic :-)

Thanks, MCsaba. I wanted to contribute an image to the Challenge. While watching TV and seeing film after film of traffic, I had to try and take a pic of the TV screen. Actually, I thought it would inject a little humor into the Challenge. Glad to see there are many more entries this morning!!!!

The filter made it quite surreal, especially due to the disorted writings. Interesting effect, emphasizes the mass of the cars very well. MCsaba
