I like the use of black and white here. Using color would have taken a lot away from it I think. I love the focus of the bridge up ahead and the tilte is perfect...I feel that way everytime I get in traffic going to work.
I think this is an excellent idea for a photo... my only problem with it is that I think it should have been taken just a little closer to the end of the tunnel where the opening filled a little more of the image.. The tunnel opening is GREAT framing for this shot but I think, for the most part, there is too much darkness around the edges here to suit me... Being closer to the edge *or* zooming out a little more may have been a nice improvement. Im glad i'm not driving in this much traffic :) Good work!
I thought B&W at first, but the tailights are a little red. I like how the extreme desaturation simplifies what otherwise might have been a pretty busy image. I like the off centered-ness of the arch too, it makes you feel more 'in the middle' of things than if it had been centered.
Such an impressively framed/focused/composed photograph for obviously being in a moving car. The contrasts of this photo are outstanding, and I just love the entire composition. Great job.
