This Weeks theme is On the Road, which is a perfect theme since I just traveled back and forth from Toronto to Chicago this past weekend, and of course I took some pictures with from the car as we were driving with my Nokia cell phone.
BTW the Nokia is the Multimedia Smart phone that I received for free back at the end of June just for being a Toronto area blogger. It’s a Nokia 6682 and I’m very pleased with most of the photos that it takes. Some of the ones I take while the car is moving don’t turn out the best but it sure is handy!
Ok here goes:
I took this one last Saturday night as we were driving around trying to find the Old School House on Lincoln North, this was before or after my quick change in the car, see the post prior to this one for that story!
This one was taken later that evening after we left the concert. I love the blurred effect. It looks like we were speeding along but we were actually driving at a fairly low speed:
And finally, we saw this sign when we were traveling on Interstate 69, going through Indiana.
We found this one kind of funny, because I’m sure that each state and each one of Canada’s provinces could have whole fields full of signs just like that.
Happy Saturday, and have a great long weekend to all that celebrate Labour Day.
Great pics.
Great shots, and with your phone no less! 🙂
All good shot and especially the blurred one, it does look like you were speeding along. More great shots of your trip! Happy Saturday!
Great photos!! Take care. Dani
Grea photos, all of them. What a great view of America!
Happy Saturday.
Drop by, My Saturday Photo is up.
I liked all 3 photos. The first one.. very cool, especially with the wet pavement and sparkling lights. Felt like I was at the intersection myself.
Wendy directed me here today and I’m glad she did! You have a greeat blog here, lot’s of fun! I’ll make sure I come back and give it the attention it deserves.
I luv the city shots!
Mine’s up 🙂
That billboard’s an interesting way to catch criminals!
Those are great shots. I love the first one. The wet streets really set it off.
Mine’s up.

Great pics. I love the way the lights reflect off the wet street in the first one.
Nwo THAT’S a way to catch drug dealers!
Great pics!
I’m up!
Ya know, I’ve not seen anything like that around my area of Texas….but I don’t read billboards that much. LOL The whole theme you’ve share is great.

Those are indeed wonderful road picture. I too enjoy the blurred effect.
Happy Saturday and have a safe weekend.
Those are amazing pics being that they were taken with a phone cam! The 2nd one is my favorite too. In the 1st pic, I like the time of day (of the photo) along with the building on the corner, looks very cool.
Love your pictures! I think the second is my favorite. It really does give the feeling of speed.
Wow, pretty great photos for a cell phone.
Mine’s up.
I love the second shot. Wow!
wow – what a deal. I’d love to get a phone for just being a Vancouver blogger! Great stories and thanks for the visit.
LOVE that blurred one!!
Cool, cool, cool pics! Love the lights on the wet pavement. Thanks for commenting on mine too. No photoshop, au naturelle. Cool, huh?

Gorgeous pictures! You have a real talent there. love the effect you got with all the colors of Chicago and the “rush of wind effect”, as well. 🙂
I love the blurred effect too. And the Wanted-sign: he must be something special to put up that hah? Yikes. Luckily it hasn’t gone that far over here – yet.
Love the Chicago pics, makes me alittle homesick!! 😉
Mine is up!
I like the sense of movement in the middle shot. 🙂
Camera phone pics? They’re great.
I got a Nokia camera phone as a gift and am switching cell phone companies so I can do some moblogging.
I hope my pics are half as nice as yours.
Take care,
Frances
Those are great shots from a cell phone and neat with the movement.
Thanks for the comment about the Canadian blogrolll on my blog. I will check it out!
Great street shots!
I love your photos. They turned out so good. I’m new with this and just joined the Sat. Scavenger Hunt. I’ve been doing a motorcycle scavenger hunt all summer and loving that. My motorcycle had to be in all the photos.
Camera phone? wow… I’ve got one I never use – maybe I should change that?
Anyway, nice pics. In Finland’s capital, Helsinki, there’s one place that resembles very much the corner house in the first pic! The blurred one is very good – and for the last one… it’s a bit difficult to decide wether to cry or laugh at that 😀
Thanks for visiting me 🙂
Great photos! The first one is my favorite!
I especially liked the wanted for cocaine pic, very unusual.
great photos…
very cool- the blurry lights & all. of course, they are of chicago- one of my favorite places on earth!!
I love your shots, the red light reflection on the first one, the blurry effect on the second one, great job!! I am late visiting because I was busy, busy-
I really like that first photograph! Ya know, I’ve never saw a wanted billboard like that. Sorry I’m so late in visitin’ – the blogroll has grown so much it’s hard for me to keep up now.
