This is a pic of the 210 freeway shot from an overpass in my town. I cropped and tweaked the levels in PSCS4. I had to put it together pretty fast due to the fact that i didn't even learn about the challenge until an hour before the deadline hahaha! let's see how it does!

Greetings from the Critique Club

Ah, there's a familiar sight - the California Freeway. You found a good way to interpret the orange Challenge and went with it.

Undoubtedly with a little more time, you could have tweaked this to accent the Orange even more. There is a little more room in Levels to make the orange stand out even stronger while leaving the car pool lane and diamond distinct & separate by moving the middle slider waaay over to the right, but as you say, you had only limited time to play.

The comments on your image show that others appreciated your effort and that's what counts sometimes, in this venue.

Glad you had the inspiration to shoot this one. It's a fun image.

I like this. All you can see is the ghost of the cars. Nice.

Minimalist and simple but great.

Very creative. I would have prefer whole pic to be little dark as it is in right side corner
