Let me know which you prefer and why.
Pens:
Mobile photography has its instantaneous benefits. In the Lens section are two examples. On a road trip this week traveling South on I-95 corridor, I was powerless to resist the view ahead.
The journey had a certain syncopation until the junction that veered toward my destination. Suddenly the pace was tortoise-like.
To my left several overpasses had aerial designs that lured my attention. I grabbed my iPhone, and began to record my view.
Those few chance moments were a reminder that the Smartphone has a certain ease of use. It’s not only readily available, but produces an image that can be as whimsical or serious as my “real” DSLR.
The two images fit into WordPress Weekly Photo Challenge that shows effortless lines and patterns that are evident and hidden in everyday life. It’s often staggering the beauty of the simplest of designs.
Note: As always I welcome any comment about this post or any part of my blog.

#2… the unexpected blue halo in both photos is interesting and works particularly well for #2
Thank you.
The top photo where it looks like the two highways are going to merge together…great lines.
Laurie, thanks and see you soon.
Number one for me, although I do feel that I might be sucked in and go over some strange edge to nowhere.
Thanks, and enjoy the week.
Captured by an artist’s eye, a usual freeway turns into a work of Art. Stunning colors. Have a great weekend.
I’m humbled. Have a good week. Thanks.
No 2 for me. Like them both, but the bold line and the asymmetry is convincing.
I appreciate your comment and visit.
Hard choice…#2 is a bit more appealing to me due to its boldness and contrast.
Thank you so much.
Symmetry image~like it
Have a happy weekend^^
Thanks, see you soon.
My vote goes for No. 2 photo. I like the way it leads the eye around the whole photograph.
Thank you, happy weekend.
I prefer #2. It has a stronger and more dominant line.
I appreciate your comment. Thanks.
WOW! Stunning & futuristic! Kudos~
Cindy, thank you. See you soon.
Like the way #2 conveys a feeling of movement. That is, #1 draws the eye right in, but #2 draws in my body as I feel like Im heading right down that highway myself.
Erica, thanks for your observations.
I like #1. Amazing things we can do with our iPhone.
Oh, I agree. Thanks.
#2 for sure! lovely colors and persecutive!
I appreciate your comment.
Thanks, and enjoy the weekend.
I prefer the second, perhaps for the asymmetry.
