Default drive by "shooting"

ok. ok. ok.

I know that is a REALLY lame title. But that is literally how these pics were taken.

This one is of the bridge. I leaned out the window (passenger) while checking to make sure A) my camera strap was firmly around my neck and around my wrist and B) no cars beside us.
I set up the camera and pointed UP. I liked the lines of this myself. The only PP done is my name in the corner
May 31 028wm

this is what I saw when I looked back after the above shot. I shot at random and it is not the best placed shot but I kind of like it...wonder what the driver thought of me? lol

Thought I was going to see bullets flying. I also take shots on long trips hanging out the window. Thanks for sharing

Ya they look good. I'll take a picture of a gas station going 75 mph just to get my setting right on my camera and screw off. On a 5 hr trip to vegas or a 4 hr trip to Yellowstone. You have alot of extra time on your hands.

I like the lines, composition and color contrast of the bridge against the sky. Nice images whether standing still or driving by!
