A simple long exposure (providing blur) will do here i reckon.

That's true, i think what Fabinator was doing is saying that he thinks my entry is in his opinion the winner.

There are a load of great entries in this comp and still a few more days until entry deadline, so it's going to be close.

SB - without that blue streak of light, I don't find your photo very interesting, no offense. There's just soooooo many shots of this sort of thing. But man oh man! that blue is just the right thing to get me going.

Is it a train?? Image

I didn't even think about that, what is that blue?
... it is kind of patriotic, if you know what I mean

Yes UNFLUX, i agree. There are too many shots like this. The only reason i'm sort of proud of this is largely down to the blue on it. I also quite like how thick the lights are and that there is also the red light on the slip road too. I guess it's something i had to try once, even though most people with a camera capable of doing this usually does the same.

The blue is the light from the sign on top of a 18 wheeler. The fact i shot this on a 30 second exposure just before this came towards me i am particularly proud of.
