Challenge: Branch (Basic Editing III)
Camera: Nikon D70s
Location: End of drive

Date Uploaded: Sep 6, 2005

 Car passing close to a small branch growing by the side of the road.

Just cropped and level adjusted. Sky overexposed as I needed a slow shutter speed for the car effect. Eventual setting were 1.3 and f/25 with the standard Nikon 18-70mm lens.

i like how you got the bus to look as if it were just passing really quickly, it really adds to the solitude of it.

I love the motion from the cars long exposure, and the composition looks good on the eyes. The focus could be sharper on the plant/weed at the edge however since it's slight fuzziness gives the impression it's intentionally being 'looked past', if you get me, so as to draw more attention to the car.

nice blur of what? Is this a branch? Nice blur though...I wish it had a bit more definition.

Like it a lot. I would have liked it more without the lightpost but well...Anyway, it's my best rated one in this contest.

This is so cool! I like it but I think some things are a little too saturated.

Love this, but the only reason I'm not giving a 10, is that I think (IMHO) that the lamp post should have been cropped out. 9 from me

Great idea! Nice capture of the motion and "feel" of the branch. A bit overexposed in the top right. I might also crop the street light out of this shot.

Looks a bit overexposed, but i'm sure that was due to a longer shutter speed. Focus is a bit soft too. I like the POV though.

Great idea and title. The shot's lighting is a bit harsh though and I think a little sharper focus would help. Still, solid entry.
