Rona, I'm afraid to ask how you managed to handle camera/driving/storm, but the result is a powerful image that transports one to the dangerous wet road. I'm particularly sensitized since I was in the same situation yesterday:) Where did you get the daguerreotype filter from?
Like it a lot.

I really like this too, Rona, and was also wondering like Beatriz, how you managed this shot unless you were a passenger? Very cool work! #10616419

Yes, of course I was a passenger! I neglected to say that my husband was driving - it is a very boring drive, but I had my camera with me and I was trying to think out of the box. So I did a whole series...the daguerreotype filter was from onOne's Perfect Effects 4. #10616430
