    You are fond of shooting thru a wet windshield no?

    I like the abstract quality and colors, but it leaves me scratching my head a bit.

    Wrong, Liz. He shot the windshield, not through it. It's an interesting abstraction, BD.

    You remembered, Liz. :-) Yes, abstract. Color. Period. And far, far better than those that you remember from last year. I hope. :-)

    I think so, as the curve of the dash compliments the curve of the windshield wiper swath.

    Ah... I too remember the earlier attempts and this by far exceeds that. Great colors mixed in there and that all too familiar mood of rain, traffic and construction comes through well.

    Very interesting. I rather like it. It gives me a feeling of sitting in the backseat of a car on a rainy day, staring out (or perhaps just at) the window. . .halfway between awake and asleep.

    Thanks, Scott. I think the earlier attempts - last year's drive to the Outer Banks - offer a perfect example of how bad we can be as our own editors. This one I'll live with. rolleyes1.gif
