Long exposure shot of traffic

[abisurd]

Hi,

This is my first post here, though I have replied to a few threads, off and on.

This is an attempt to capture traffic movement at a square near my office. I took it from the roof of my office, which is at level 8.
Shot with a 30 seconds exposure, f/8 (min aperture for my Panasonic FZ8) (perhaps) with a 2 stop ND filter (the scene otherwise was rather well lit).

i've never tried this kind of shot before, so i have nothing to offer on what should have been.....i love the color and composition and even the stars around the street lights.....

and by the way.....your flickr stream is amazing.....

Hi! great shoot. Someone told me that this kind of shot, to be really amazing allways have to have a focused element to contrast with the moving ligths, in your shot the lightpoles are abit to distracting for my taste, and my eyes wonder around the frame instead of having a specifc point of reference.... great shoot.

Great shot, never would have thought of using an ND at night.
