"Driving into the sunset"

A local toll plaza on the Pennsylvania Turnpike during rush hour. 80 second exposure. I personally had a lot of fun with this photo series as it combines traffic trails and a sunset which are some of my favorite elements. Plus I've been waiting for over a year for ideal high traffic, lighting, sky, and personal time availability.

Comments / suggestions are welcome. Thanks for viewing, and I really appreciate the welcome I've received on this board as a newcomer the last few days.

Wow, this is great. I really like the tones in it. The last second lane change just makes it home.

Great job with the colors and the long exposure, it looks both deserted and full of activity at the same time.
