The primary road in this photo is a dead-end road to our neighborhood up the hill and to the left. It took a while to catch vehicles coming and going at the same time. I took the photo from our bedroom deck, which provides a great view of a wide variety of events... clouds & storms, sunrises & sunsets, fireworks and even the occasional traffic accident. The glow on the horizon is from the business district of Arnold, MO, about 5 miles or so away.
I set my Canon for manual mode, set to bulb and f8.0. Using a cable release, this image came out at 51 seconds.
This is my first time submitting to DPChallenge, and working with a deadline date presented its own challenge! Thank you for the opportunity to share... I look forward to participating in future challenges and upgrading to full membership soon.

I think this is much better than the score indicates. I really like the "every day" feel to it, with the suburban houses, the lights in the distance, and the glimpses of stars in the sky.
