I was on an excruciatingly slow line at the DMV inspection station when I noticed the wonky reflection the tail lights of the car ahead of me cast on my hood. Add odd blue lighting from above and it made for some entertaining moments.
I wish I could have taken more shots but I was told to stop the moment the security guard saw my camera. I suppose there's a huge risk for terrorism at DMV stations - from consumers of course.
Finally back home with my deemed safe vehicle I took the original shot ...
... and had a little fun trying to recreate what I was imagining as I sat in line.
This last shot surprised me. I have no idea where that Free something sign was. I never saw it.
Just Say No to drugs kids, go photo trippin' instead.

I'm amazed by these pictures. What fun, though. I love the explosion of colour in the second pic and the fancy design in the third. Like I say ... amazing.
What a fun idea .. photo trippin' .. these are like so cool man .. didya ever point the camera out the side window at night at the lights? Try it sometime when you arent the driver.
LOVE! LOVE! LOVE! these series of photos, Dianne!
They're AWESOME! Love all the various colors and shapes.
And it's so ironic, because I took photo of something last week and then used the photo edited software over at Luniapic to adjust the photo a bit, and it came out VERY similar to your third one down!!!!
I'll probably post it sometime this weekend.

Wonderful, Dianne. You're an artist. (I had to go back to the first photo to see the Free Something and yes, it's there but not as obvious.)
Can't use a camera in a DMV lineup? Well, there you go, you lawbreaker, you. Who would ever have guessed?

What a trip! I just need to put on an old Velvet Underground record and I'll be set. Cool shots!
Well that WAS a trip! Who knew a DMV station could be so psychedelic. No wonder they don't want your pictures getting out to the public. Could ruin their reputation. Fun post.
I love what you did with the original picture : it is so tripping funny ! I also loved the way you told how you got it in the first place, with the guard, and all : so exciting... Nice sharing this week again.
Freaky stuff. Great.

LOL! This is great! Very creative!
You're just like my husband. He'll see a reflection in the most mundane of items and there he is with his camera. Also, he's been reprimanded by more security guards than I can count! I can see where security at the DMV would have to be tight. The DMV itself incites rage in the otherwise obedient citizen.
Happy Weekend!
Very nice reflection and creative variations with excellent processability.
The idea of security guards at vehicle inspection station bothers me in so many ways. I guess it's needed to protect the workers from the irate people sitting in long lines while the inspectors 'work hard'. Yea, that's the ticket.
As someone who 'grew up' (ha) in the '70's, I can really appreciate these photos. The second looks like a Hendrix album cover and the third looks like the ceiling at a disco (not that I ever set foot in one). I think these are freekin' creative!!
What a delightful sense of humor. Your creativity in the face of utter frustration and boredom could set an example for those impatient ones (moi!)
Very nice reflections and trippin'

Not only creative and imaginative, these effects are incredible!!! Kudos to such a fun post.
Desert Shadows and Week's Summary is my day's post link if you'd care to join me.
Have a glorious weekend.
The last I can say, you are very creative !!!
girl, you are having way too much fun here! these are some cool shots. I feel like I'm at a Warhol exhibit or something. fantastic shots. happy weekend to you.
Great manipulations, Dianne, I like each of them!
Lots of creative fun! and it looks really spekky!
Great artistic creativity! Looks like so much fun.
The colors were great in all versions! My SIL is a cop and he said that people are filming and recording them all the time now.
Those pics are hot. Real hot! They are amazing. Although I have never tried, they look like someone trippin on ACID! Great! Cheers Lady Di!!
