    I love the first one the mostest. The last one scares me.

    The visions do grow more powerful the longer and later you continue to drive.

    The first one reminds me of the opening and ending to David Lynch’s Lost Highway.

    I’ve yet to see Lost Highway, but I did hope that the first photo might conjure up associations with various (actual) films.

    The progression from literal road through blurred images suggesting ‘road’ and ‘driving’ to outright hallucination have their parallel in my own (myopic) experiences of long drives stretching on into seemingly endless night.

    Oh — and it just hit me, Brandon, that the image reminding you of Lost Highway might also put a person in mind of the night-time drive out to Simi Valley in The Big Lebowski!
