Comment by krnodil:
This is such a fun and funky portrait - successful both at capturing sense of character and sense of place. The eye moves around at first, until it finds the true subject in the bottom corner, like a revelation.

HEEEE - you better be careful. Shooting while driving is NOT safe (I know - I've done it)

day 8. body & soul

Comment by Bruce_the_Robert:
Probably not what you were thinking of, but for some reason this came to mind . . .

"No more turning away
From the weak and the weary
No more turning away
From the coldness inside
Just a world that we all must share
It's not enough just to stand and stare
Is it only a dream that there'll be
No more turning away?"
Roger Waters, "On the turning away"

She looks like she's walking toward it all, not away from it; and something about the image, the feel of motion, purpose, as she walks from this placed marked with symbols and symbolism, it makes me think she won't join in the turning away . . .

That is a mighty big steering wheel. Love your happy expression with your hand out the window catching the breeze.

HAh! Luv it! And in my younger days when I was stationed in San Diego and my girlfriend was in San Jose (my hometown), I made that trip nearly every weekend. But I drove all night. Had to stick my head out the window most of the time to keep me awake. I think my record was SD to SJ in about 4:45 doing 90-95 most of the way. :)

Nothing like a little impromtu photo session to break up the monotony of driving down beautiful hiways with the sun roof open and the windows down and good jams on. Looks like you were enjoying the moment, and this is a fun shot.

Nothing is better than having your hair whip in the wind, IMO. Great shot. And the 101 has some very pretty views, as I recall.
