Almost got killed last night... (PICS)

but I got the shot!!

(click for full size)




middle of the night (3am hehe), I had a crave to take some pics... grabbed the camera, tripod, and took off driving...

found this spot on the freeway on a bridge... pulled to the emergency lane (was narrower than my car), got out, set up, and took a shot... almost got hit by a car driving by... was pretty scary

got me thinking though: (maybe not this specific shot), but in general..
-Is it worth it?
-Who am I doing this for? Why?
-Should I risk my health/life to get the shot I want?

I'm not comparing myself to them, but looking at some of the great photographers' work and the risks they take to trully capture what they see... i'd have to say YES, it's worth it every time.

your opinions?
