 My SIL's partner found out in a short period of time that she had to have a heart bypass surgery. (Two weeks before her 50th B-day!) Ended up being a triple bypass. So we took the kids and made a two hour trip down to see the both of them. And this is on the way back home.

I was tired and not driving :) And I started playing with my camera. Wanted to see what it looked like if I could make squiggles. So this image is the result of an exhausted mind's imagination.

The squiggles look like the plot of a vigorous heart. Interesting that you would choose such a shot on this occasion.

It̢۪s like I̢۪m looking at a three dimensional heart monitoring machine. Wonderful.

Nice that you can see some of reality along with the lines, giving it a sense of place as well as movement.

Quite breathtaking actually and somewhat fitting (ekg like) given the background story (sorry to hear that, hope recovery is swift)

Nice abstract. I like the sharply defines squiggles against the softly focused overpass.
I have had fun entertaining myself with this sort of photography on long night drives (husband driving). It really helps pass the time and the results are often very pleasing. And it's something we just wouldn't have ever done with a film camera.

Nice abstract. You may have been bored but the result is far from boring!

Funny, how this does and then again doesn't convey boredom. The experiment is fueled by boredom, but the results is far from boring, more envigorating.

Your exhausted mind made a nice abstract.

Your image symbolically represents your story well. It does look like an EKG graph while traveling down an unknown road. Hope it all works out well for your friend.

This totally works. Now I have to go try it myself...

Looks like a couple of jack-o-lantern mouths grinning at one another.

You're fast mastering squiggles. Good intentional motion shot!

Hope her surgery has an excellent outcome. I love shots like this, you got a nice one.

I have done this while in the car. You can get such neat affects. Sorry to hear about your SIL. Hope she recovers quickly.

Nice, I like it. Its always interesting and fun to see what comes from a ride in the car at night when your a passenger.

That's darn neat for a boredom shot...love it too! Oddly high ISO for a long s/s :)

Fabulous squiggles Michelle. Love it

I hope your friend has a quick recovery.
I like this shot - it looks like a set of teeth on the right is snarling at the squiggles on the other side of the road.

A bored mind is a dangerous but amazing thing. I like how the squiggles lead you along. Also a bit like an EKG reading so fit for the visit too. I hope your friends doing well.
