A few more from a different overpass. Focused on car trails mostly.

    While technically both are good, the top one makes me feel unnerved. I guess what I'm trying to say is that the shot isn't "grounded," since the viewer is left in free space. The bottom shot rocks.

    I like the first because it makes you feel a bit unsettled. Neat perspective. Not so crazy about the shadow though.

    The second is also very cool.

    I'm with Ian. I like the first. It's taken from an odd perspective that draws attention. I also especially like that it makes David queasy.

    I liked the unique perspective through the gap, couldn't help the shadow as I had a lamp post at my back.

    Here's a "grounded" perspective from the same location.
