when I had a longish commute like this, I would put my mind on autopilot and be on my way. sometimes I got home and didn't even remember the drive. That's kinda how this picture looks -- like my mind on auto. :)

Nice processing on this one. The selective desat gives nice moodiness to the highway and is contrasted nicely by the deep colors in the sky.

I could have titled this "The Road Less Traveled"...Half my drive time is spent getting out of the Downtown area, but this stretch is always good..(for those in LA...the 2 to the 210)...If I dare, I'll try to get a shot of the Downtown drive)

Were you... taking pictures while driving on the freeway? No wonder I'm scared of driving in LA. :P

The scenery here is actually really interesting, especially with your color treatment. Better you than me though -- I don't handle road stress well enough to deal with an LA commute on a daily basis. You are a stronger person than I am.

I love how the de-sat made the yellow stand out on the houses in the background!

Oh you SO should be taking the train. Public Transportation is pretty much nonexistant here. I envy the opportunity to let someone else stress about traffic... and the price of gas ;) Great image, nice desatting.
