Theme Day - Lines & 300th

Here we are, another month over and a new one just beginning, and its Theme Day. This months theme is lines and I must admit I wasn't feeling very inspired by this one. I had a photo of some electricity cables lined up (no pun intended!) but after a look through the archives I decided on these lines of light, created by traffic on the motorway. I know I posted something similar a while back but I like them! Today also marks my 300th post. I can't believe I've been doing this blog for nearly a year, time flies when you're having fun!

There are 163 other CDPB's taking part in this Theme Day, click here to view thumbnails for all of the other participants.

Come back tomorrow for Changing View.

Cool lines. I'm sure this was one of the first images of yours I commented on and what kept me coming back. Big congrats on the 300. I think you should go back into the shopping mall and snap the security gaurd to celebrate.

I remember the other one you posted, and I think I like this one even better because it's more abstract. Great choice for theme day. Happy 300, it does go fast - I'm having my 6 month blog anniversary today. oh boy, it's just one big party at CDP!

Happy, happy 300th post, Marley. Only 65 more, a bit over two months off, and you will be celebrating 1 year.

I quite like your light trails. It's a beautiful photograph. And I loved clever, clever US Elaine's quip about racy Cheltenham.

Overall the beauty and creativity of everyone's offerings is making this my fave theme day in quite awhile. Kudos on your contribution.

WOW - very cool! Thanks for your comment at Sydney Daily Photo I’m not near my computer at the moment (have a visit to see where I am!), so sorry for not commenting earlier.

Congrats on 300. Your photo reminds me of the old movie Tron.

One of the best I've seen for this month! Very striking lines! Suites the theme very well! Happy Theme Day and of course, happy 300th!

I'm looking forward for your feature for tomorrow about the same spot you'd shot every second of the month. Our Semestral Breaks in a week! But the requirements, never lesser! Please pray for me for the coming hectic days! Mabuhay and God Bless!

First off, congratulations on 300! I am enjoying sharing our little corners of the world with each other. Second, excellent theme photo! Fantastic lines at night! Third, I procrastinated and am not part of the official theme day celebrations. But i went ahead on my own.

Paul said...

Congrats on your 300th post! No matter if you've used a similar shot a while back - this photo certainly caught my attention on the CDP portal - it looks great!

Lori said...

This is good - I really like the colours.

It's funny isn't it- sometimes the themes grab you, sometimes they just really really don't. But considering you weren't that fussed by it, you've still done it proud!

Ken Mac said...

excellent example of long shutter time. I love those linnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnes.

Chuck Pefley said...

Appropriate ... broken lines, yet the eye naturally connects the colored bits. The upper bit in the photo I originally thought was the top of an harmonica :)

Ham said...

Very effective treatment for an everyday subject, turning it into the unusual

Kathleen McQueen Wright said...

Janet said...

Very modernistic! Happy 300th!

I came by early on and didn't leave a comment - I love this photo, the colors are so vivid - and such sense of movement.
