Aesthetic I like how these shots work together as a group of three, the point of view simultaneously speeding up and slowed down. Stuck in traffic, you watch the incoming traffic, rendered into fast streams of lights and mass racing down the hill, as the traffic in front of you forms into a immobile and homogeneous mass of steel, rubber, and plastic. The accident up ahead was horrendous. Police, fire, ambulances, and a Hazmat trailer, a burnt out hulk of a truck calcified by chemical fire retardant. Those I refused to photograph, which at any rate would have been impossible as the traffic moving in my directions began to pick up speed, moving quick past the cars now jammed up on the other side of the barrier.
