Bay Bridge

k-feb-08-darnall-oc-ft-was-030-bay-bridge-500.jpg

What’s a bad thing to do when driving over a bridge?  Take a picture?  I disagree.   What if its a really high two lane bridge and you are 1 mile out from land?  I say its still not a problem. 

 Special thanks to corresponding photographer Shelly for today’s photo.  (Though let it be known that I will do what it takes to get the scoop for the Maryland Daily Photo Community….tell your friends) 

It’s really neat how the motion has created such a strange effect on this photo. It’s as if the whole thing was captured underwater.   It’s also amplified by the dusk of an already overcast day, which gives it sort of a creepy overtone.

    And I can say I knew her before she was famous. Does that make me famous once removed?

    Oh! Fancy :)

    I still think your camera is drunk…talented but drunk.

    This picture is ridiculously good. It’s part modern art, part “This isn’t a Jerry Bruckheimer movie special effect? Where’s the bad acting and slow motion chase scene.”
