Those are car taillights. When the back of the car was visible to the camera, the taillights were more visible. When the side of the car turned towards the camera, the taillights were less visible. Seems obvious to me. |

Nice job Hahn. But what happened to the lights about half way up on the straight stretch? It's like they disappeared and the started again?

"Voting was not understandable on this challenge. Those who gave this image less than a 5, I'd like to hear from you!"
Fewer than 5% of the votes (5 out of 126) gave this less than a 5. That seems to me well within the "normal range" for outlier scores in DPC. Personally, for whatever it's worth, I gave it a 5. Had you entered the one sans light trails, I'd have given it a 4.
Why? Because, lovely as the image is, for me it's more a shot of the landscape, which happens to have an s-curve in it, than it is a shot featuring the s-curve. In the one you entered, the taillight trails accentuate the curve a bit more, hence the slightly higher score from me.
It's a nice image, nothing objectionable about it at all, just not as interesting a take on the challenge as many others, in my personal opinion.
Congrats on top 10. |

This is so well done. Not only is it a beautiful scene, the photo is flawless. Sharp yet smooth, amazing tones, colors, and, most importantly for this challenge, the tail lights have completely illuminated the already existing S curve.
Best in the challenge in my opinion, and though I'm not voting, I'll fave this one if you don't mind. |
