    Stopped on the freeway to take this. A cop pulled over to see what I was doing but let me go about my business.

    It would have been a pity, had THAT photo NOT been taken. Not that it is the prettiest of all roofs in the foreground :)er: ) but the far view and the dramatic sky help making it! You get some amazing depth and sharpness, and a huge range of tones, which makes me wonder if you are presenting us a b&w HDR-image here?

    This is the I10 east just before the 7th ave. exit. And it's pretty safe at this spot while you're parked, it's getting back into traffic that can be a little scary.

    Yes this is hdr, good call. Going b&w helps reduce the cartoony look a little.

    Well done, and I agree that it's better in black and white.

    Very nice shot! Lucky you didn't get a warning of sorts from the cop.

    I like it! I agree, the B/W is more interesting and I agree with V -- I don't trust Phoenix drivers for 1 second!

    Thanks, Fox Paw.

    Thanks Mitica100, after seeing some of your b&w work I'm honored. :hail: And yes, I was surprised when he let me keep shooting.

    Thanks Ian, driving in this city can be a little challenging lol.
