Follow The Light - a photo on Flickriver

Follow The Light

            I'm going to tell you a little about the image:
This past Tuesday I had a couple of hours of free time for myself, so I decided to go photograph the car lights on the highway through long exposure, as I have done on other occasions. It wasn't too late but of course, everything is absolutely dark, to give you an idea of the place, to be able to do this, I have to park the car at a safe distance from where I take the photo, because right where I put the tripod is on a bridge where a fairly busy road also passes. Although I am located in a safe place, (there is a security fence) keep in mind that I am totally alone with a lot of noise around me and with cars, motorcycles and trucks everywhere!
It was funny because this time, almost without realizing it, the police showed up where I was to find out what I was doing since they had seen something strange (the tripod) when they passed right behind me with their car and decided to come over to see what it was... I told them what I was doing and even showed them some images I had already taken to justify that I was not doing something illegal or bad, they reacted very kindly and even as if they were trying to apologize. Although the thing ended as if nothing had happened, I admit that when I saw the police lights behind my "joy" it was not exactly what I felt at that moment. This time I found two good people doing their job well and they didn't look for problems for me, but it couldn't have been like that!
I was taking some more photographs from different angles and this is the one I decided to publish, it is perhaps the most typical, the one centered with the highway although I admit that I also like them with a more lateral point of view, maybe I will publish some later!

I hope you like it! Happy day everyone, thanks for stopping by!
