Time on the Fwy

So I did manage to make it out for a short journey on the 405 this week. Unfortunately it really was a short trip, and opportunities for photos were pretty slim. Here's a decent shot - what's great here is that the traffic is actually moving.

I had intended to take a few more shots on the way back into town. However I was thwarted by another freeway - one that is the antithesis of the greatness of the 405 - the 10.

Coming through Santa Monica - where the 10 begins - I ended up in bumper to bumper traffic - at 3 pm no less - and was forced to get off the freeway and take side streets the rest of the way back.

I suppose in theory this could have been caused by the never-ending construction on the 405 at the junction with the 10, but then I can't blame the 10. And I really dislike the 10.

I'll be heading South on the 405 this weekend. This time I will be traveling a bit of distance so should have some nice shots to post on Monday.
