This is more like a ‘Fail Photo’ then a professional photograph but it is amusing and rearly seen so I guess it counts.

I’m glad I wasn’t there but fun photograph and very colorful. I wonder if people were honking their horns and shouting.

What a fun change of pace. I don’t know where someone got the word “fail” – This does everything the picture should do. It is strong graphically (great color pattern and perspective) and as human interest — even social commentary. The math says some of those cars will be there a while.

Current affairs in action! I used to imagine that if stellar aliens were watching us, they might think our roadways were arteries with little blood cells rushing through. This particular ‘clot’ looks like a heart attack! Very unusual but colorful potd.

It looks like the black car and white fan at the top right has had an accident. Cool picture

This certainly makes a statement and is another side of everyday life, Back to a world the majority of folks live in.

Lots of life and colour – shame to call it a failure …

Well-spoted and well-taken. We are a colorful lot!
James Turner
@#1: I think you might call that an ‘allusion fail’

It’s sad that I had to read the caption to have any idea where this picture was taken. American corporate imperialism at its finest. An excellent picture, nevertheless; great lines and colors.

.. not a place for ‘road rage’! Not a big variety in color & model of the vehicles!

Entrapment…..TOTAL CHAOS!!! NOT MY PLACE TO BE! Give me mountains and a stream….or the middle of an orchard. Great picture, must have been interesting to watch the pandemic!

At some point, humans will have to stop using individual cars. There isn’t enough place on this planet for all of them. Great shot, I’m glad I wasn’t there.

What is a “Fail Photograph”? This is a very interesting picture.
Laurie
No, thanks!
I guess it’s “a great place to visit, but I wouldn’t want to live there!”
Interesting photo, though.

I was missunderstood before, when I said a ‘ Fail Photo’ I ment on a Fail Blog , where is a contest for the funniest photo of the day, not that it is a bad photo , i really like it, everything about it really.
