The Tuesday Inspiration: From A to B

2011.12.06

As ever, free time during daylight hours was at a premium today so I took a quick drive up the road to a bridge that crosses the A27 trunk road, just north of our village in search of a shot to illustrate the theme. As luck would have it there were plenty of different forms of the TI on the road so it was just a question of mounting my camera on a tripod and shooting lots of exposures until the right combination of vehicles drove through the frame. Given the rather grey weather I decided a gritty black and white conversion was in order to give the photo some punch.

Thanks to Brenda for setting today’s theme. Last Tuesday’s theme was ‘glitter’. The other interpretations of this week’s theme can be found here.

The “Tuesday Inspiration” began in 2009 when Stefan and I started setting each other a photographic challenge on a… Tuesday. Very soon afterwards, we decided to open this up to other PB members, followed by the idea that we should not reveal what the subject is, so that other members could compare how different members view a single theme. The Tuesday Inspiration is not a contest or a challenge, but a group of people all agreeing to post their interpretation of a single theme on Tuesdays. Each week, one of the contributors sets the theme. There are now over 40 members contributing to the TI. We have only two “rules”: don’t include the subject in the TI title or tags and please comply with standard PB guidelines on courtesy, etc. If you would like to take part, please send me a message via this blog.

davids Good result - the grittiness works... and just the right amount of blur.

danrav The "punch" that you speak of is exactly what I felt when I opened your post! The grittiness is perfect and the sense of motion and speed is really wonderful! The vehicle in the lower left corner is really zooming!!! Wow!!!

djnana I've always wanted to set up that shot, but can't locate an overpass to get it! Wonderful lines and movement, Helen - love the b/w treatment. Thanks again for asking me to choose the theme this week.
