Jeff, I truly like this a lot! Love the comp and graphic design. I assume it is a long exposure in a tunnel and based on the size and number of ground lines, also assume this is a subway. I am a bit surprised that it is only 1/2 second exposure. #1556479

Okay, Jeff. Now you're just showing off. Tell us it was handheld. Go ahead. All kidding aside, this is a fantastic motion blur image. #10925364

Sherran Andersen level-classic December 19, 2013

Love the lines Jeff. Nothing to change. #10925600

Michael Kelly level-classic December 19, 2013

A really intriguing shot. Love the simplicity and the lines stretching around the curve. The colors especially the red rail help make the shot. Of course a great felling of speed with the motion blur. Great eye and planning for a good shot. #10925798

Thanks, everyone!

This is looking out the back of the terminal train at SEA-TAC. I'm done traveling for the year, which sounds fantastic, but I head out Jan 5th for 12 days in Vegas and PHX. Fun stuff.

I shot this with one of my point and shoot cameras. I'm really impressed with the results, it produces some pretty clean files.

Yes, this was 1/2 sec, Dale. And, Susan, I didn't have a tripod handy, so this is hand held using the window to steady things. #10925988

Susan Williams December 20, 2013

Perfect timing and so well-composed. Amazing hand-held capture. I really like the colors, too. I see a sure winner here, Jeff. #10926004

Peter W. Marks December 20, 2013

Wow! Jeff. I almost wish you hadn't told us how you did this, I was thinking up all sorts of complicated scenarios for achieving this. Great stuff. #10926228

Very cool, congratulations!! Tried this a few times through tunnels in a car, but never thought to try in an airport tram. I guess it pays to go to the front or back :). Great job!! #10965213
