It turned out well - i specially like how the headlights balance the tail lights and how they converge to a focal point as the road bends.
The final shot is unprocessed.

Awesome shot, really well balanced!

This submission is ineligible as it was taken outside the allowed date range.

But I wanted to post it as IMO it exhibits solid compositional balance.

As fot the balance in this shot ... just look and follow the shapes.

I decided to take a photo with two ideas of balance. The balance between Hot and Cold but also Light and Dark.



All comments welcome.

Here is mine, Obviously the subjects are balancing on their hands! But there is also balance between them and the large ziggurat in the background.
