Esther's photos with the keyword: traffic

Approximately 160,000 people in 60,000 cars drove into the largely rural state of Vermont (population 648,000) to view the total eclipse. This photo of a major highway shows the traffic jam as people attempted to leave the state after the eclipse. The lone vehicle in the left lanes is more typical of the traffic that is usually on the highway that time of day. It took us 6 1/2 hours to get to Vermont and 5 1/2 hours to return on what would normally have been a 3 hour drive. On the return drive, the highway was so crowded that the GPS took us through the woods at night on unlit, backroads. Still, it was worth it to see the eclipse. My camera settings were totally fooled by the lighting during the total eclipse and rather than fiddle with the settings, I put the camera down and enjoyed the eclipse. AP1023126

These photographs were taken along a busy road in Agra, India in a five minute strech. Can you count how many people have fit into this mini taxi? There are at least 8 people. AIMG_6213

This scene between the Amber Fort and Jaipur, India is typical of Indian roads. You can find almost any type of vehicle or animal traveling on the roads and there is very little lane discipline. Only the elephant and the scooter manage to stay completely within the lane markers. ODT: Change. The times are changing. AIMG_4862

The camel seems to know the way. Buses, cycle rickshaws, trucks, camel carts, cars and the occasional elephant could be seen on the streets of Jaipur, India AIMG_5037
