I have no idea now why I was taking pictures of the motorway, I certainly didn’t have a blog post in mind.
I am constantly amazed though, at how well the photo’s turn out taken through the window of a fast moving car.
Bonnie’s challenge over at Pixel Dust Photo Art this week is to submit a photo that you wouldn’t think of as beautiful. I have never thought of the M4 as beautiful, except perhaps the part that means I am near to home.
I added a filter to this, (paint daubs) and played around with the settings until I saw something I liked. I added a mask and brushed away the texture over the white lines and car lights. It is such fun to play but even better is that I am feeling motivated to play… It’s been a long two months.

I love the paint daub effect Miriam – it’s very effective for a motorway as well.
I swear, being close to home after a day trip or a longer vacation…it would be a beautiful scene in my opinion.
My art today is a QUILTED MOSAIC ROSE if you’d care to use my direct link. Have a glorious Friday.
the mountain in the distance is what caught my attention! beautiful! =)
This is very striking, Miriam – the textures are wonderful.
Very interesting. I like the perspecitve of your photo. Good use of the texture.
Just my opinion Miriam, but I think there is ALWAYS a reason for what we photograph, even if we don’t know what that reason is at the time.
Wonderful processing on this one!
Sending you wishes for a beautiful weekend!
I do like the processing here.
Great processing Miriam. Thank you for sharing with Photo Art Friday!!
I like to see pictures of different locales, so this picture was enjoyable. Nicely done.
Nice post-processing.
Regards and best wishes
Nice effects. I have several photos taken from a moving car that I quite like. I haven’t done anything with them yet, so this is inspiring.
I love the effect here – looks really like a painting! Wonderful processing!
Love what you’ve done with the picture..the scenery is lovely..no wonder you enjoy heading home!
