Daily Photo ~ Weekend Reflections ~ 7-22-11

Stuck in Hot I-81 Traffic for Hours
We were directly behind this tractor trailer, and the reflection is of another red one that was smack dab behind us. We were in a T-T Sandwich for over 2 hours. Not Fun!

  2. That sounds terrible!! But you did get a great capture and reflection -- might not have been worth two hours sandwiched between the trucks though, but it's a terrific shot! Hope you don't have to repeat it over the weekend!! Enjoy!

  4. The perils of limited access highway travel. When you're stuck you're stuck. But you salvaged a neat reflection from this. Always the photographer. LOL

  10. hah! great Vonnegut quote Genie. you've managed to take a boring experience and find some great shots. always on the lookout for a shot, hey? nice spot here. too bad you were stuck behind this thing for hours, I don't like that at all. it's bad enough to be stuck in traffic but when your view is completely block like this, that makes it even worse. you made lemonade, I love it. nice reflection. I hope you're staying cool and having a fun summer. have a great weekend Genie.

  11. Amazing how memes can help shape one's perceptions. Like others said, lemon aid from lemons.

  12. a malaysian saying, when two elephants fight, the mouse deer is squash.

    You are smack in between two elephant trailers.

  14. That's a clever reflection shot, but perhaps not worth the suffering of being sandwiched between two trucks for two hours! Hope your car has A/C!
