July 31st, 2008 at 1:59 pmIt is strange to see the stark contrast between the stillness of the road and the dizzying speed suggested by the clouds…

Kirk Jordan Says:
July 31st, 2008 at 2:49 pmGiven that the road is sharp, it doesn’t look like the photographer moved. He could have used a very VERY long exposure, and that would be quite a capture. My guess: two exposures, or selective photoshop treatment to the cloud area of the picture. (He might have even zoomed the sky in camera.) Anyway he did it, it really is a striking image and is a great contrast between solid and “fluid.”

July 31st, 2008 at 7:25 pmFabulous image! I would not call you an amateur at all. This photo is full of life and has a distinct moodiness that I like. It’s a wonderful piece of work, Pedro.
