The moment is now

Today, we think about fleeting moments and capturing motion to convey the fleetingness of time.

I am at a stand still on the I-66 bridge and the cars to the right of me are moving slowly. I used SlowShutter's motion blur setting with a 4 second shutter speed.

About five minutes later, I find myself at a stand still again on the 66 bridge but this time I tear my eyes away from the Potomac and there is the Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts. I roll down my window and snap a picture.

Traffic has been terrible lately. Instead of seething, I now can look around and try to notice. I am open to the outside world capturing my attention. This is getting close to the ramp to take me towards Independence. It looked so peaceful.

I am walking down town during the lunch hour and use the motion blur setting to capture the man walking in front of me as I am walking as well. There were a few people I wanted to photograph, but I was shy to ask them.
