I had to move on, could not take the picture with the sun setting on the right that was just a few more yards ahead.
The cop had already stopped to see why I was impeding traffic and hanging out my window.

I had fun, though.

1. I like it!
There is a nice balance with the wires, sunset, and taillights. Very cool... :D

2. Very nice.
Next time you need to get fully out of traffic, then get out of your car and get the shot you really want to! :-) (I know that is not always easy, but it is usually worth the effort.)

3. the wires look great, anyway!! I've never noticed that particular effect
Which is why it is so great to carry around a camera to document things like that.

But you just never know about shots from cars. Here's one I took of the sun going over the horizon, LOL. At least I was from the back seat, going 50 mph or so. Never got another snap off as a bunch of trees came up. Since I live in the city, I hardly ever even see the horizon at sunup or sunset.
