 Took this shot while riding on the Dubai Metro. Finally found a vehicle going at almost the same speed with no traffic around. Got lucky with the traffic, as it's almost impossible to find a moment on the Sheikh Zayed Road w/o any...I think this shot lends itself quite nicely to the Focal Point challenge

This is a great shot ... just love the sense of motion, the colors, the lines running through the frame. Most importantly, the focus point is very obvious! Excellent job -8 from me!
