Photo art.triddle.jpg

A long exposure at night of a road with a vehicle driving by

This image was a collaborative effort on the part of User:Codedelectron and myself. The image was placed in Photography, Shutter speed, and Night photography. I believe this image fits night photography particularly well because such an image is only possible at night. Also I have done my best to describe in detail in the photograph's info page how such a photograph is possible and how this one was created. I believe this photograph creates not only a visually stunning appeal but also can engage the viewer in thought if they wish. - Triddle 02:59, 1 Apr 2005 (UTC)

• Nominate and support. Self nomination - Triddle 02:59, 1 Apr 2005 (UTC)
• Oppose. This pic is sloping badly which, even if intended, looks wrong. In any case I can't find any interest in it at all. Sorry! - Adrian Pingstone 18:34, 1 Apr 2005 (UTC)
  • Well done, I've just realised it's an April First joke. You caught me!! - Adrian Pingstone 21:15, 1 Apr 2005 (UTC)
    • Actually thats not true, this isn't an april fool's joke. Triddle 22:32, 1 Apr 2005 (UTC)
      • Deep apologies, I looked at the date on the calendar and drew a totally unwarranted conclusion. Sorry again - Adrian Pingstone 22:47, 1 Apr 2005 (UTC)
• Oppose for now, though it's certainly quite interesting. Maybe if were rotated and cropped? Also, I'm no photographer - is the blurriness a focus/camera shake problem, or a necessary result of long exposure? —Korath (Talk) 01:19, Apr 2, 2005 (UTC)
• Oppose totally Why do people even submit stuff like this? Denni☯ 02:51, 2005 Apr 2 (UTC)
  • I can speak only for myself but I doubt you get submissions from people who expect commentary like this. Triddle 06:50, 3 Apr 2005 (UTC)
    • A wise man once said, "one man's trash is another man's treasure". You would do well to keep that in mind when viewing media submitted here or elsewhere. TomStar81 05:08, 15 Apr 2005 (UTC)
• Oppose. Uninteresting. Sloping horizon. Enochlau 03:55, 2 Apr 2005 (UTC)
• Oppose Oh admit it we've all taken one of these. (sorry, just not nearly good enough for featured)--Deglr6328 21:32, 2 Apr 2005 (UTC)
• Support. Very interesting picture, long shutter gives good effect. --Electricmoose 18:46, 3 Apr 2005 (UTC)
• Oppose. It's all been said above, but I don't think we have one of this effect in the featured list. I'd like to see a long exposure of a more crowded street (maybe a freeway?) at night nominated. Matthewcieplak 09:48, 6 Apr 2005 (UTC)
• Oppose, there's too much dark in this image for my liking, and the composition is not great with the light trails stopping before the centre of the image. If they went all the way from bottom left to top right I think it would be much more striking. I have a photo similar to this, you can see it here. I would be happy to upload that if anyone thinks it would be good for an article. Worldtraveller 14:38, 9 Apr 2005 (UTC)
