Took a lot of shots at lunch. Last shot of the day caught the FedEx truck. Works well with the Stop sign. Strong photo in B/W but did as best I could under Basic editing. Hope to get above a 5 for once.

it's a sign

better if the truck was going the opposite direction...."When it absolutely has to get there overnight!" interesting and well done.

Surely there's more than "one way" to ship : )

Nice timing.

Nice motion blur, adds interest to an otherwise mundane scene.

I like your way of capture... sign and moving car... just those threes are out of place bit.

interesting shot, could be made a bit more dynamic if sign was more to the right (but then again, that would mean you'd probably have to be out in the road, which could be dangerous, especially if another fedex truck was coming up behind you. then again, those are the risk that go with challenge shooting).

Perhaps i am dumb or abd driver, but i don't see 'authority' in a Stop sign. Neat pic, good use of shutter speed.

I can't see much effort to make it nice...
It could be better.
How?
The sky must go. Maybe if you stood higher?
or try to find another sign, where the background would be nicer/warmer.
I do understand the picture however - sign says stop and behind there is a motion.
Well I can't make up my mind a 6 or a 7. But i'll stay with a 7 :)

Nice! maybe STOP signal is a little centric

The blur is well timed and I like how the one way sign is also visible (but the blur looks like it is travelling the other way!) Trees clutter the top half a little, but thankfully the white rim of the sign helps it to stand out from them.

haha, the one way sign gives this picture a nice look.

cool idea but too centered for me

I don't really care for this one. Without an actual shot of the fedex truck, or blur entirely crossing the frame, it doesn't mesh for me.
11/23/2004 07:26:24 PM
Would be more interesting if not centered.
