Just before dawn, Ursynów

An early start this morning, leaving home half an hour before sunrise. At the end of ul. Kórnicka as it joined ul. Baletowa, I grabbed this snap (1/3 sec exposure), not expecting it to come out. But although blurred, it does have huge character; this is The Road, USA, Jeziorki-style.

Above: the junction of ul. Poleczki and ul. Pulawska. Traffic heading into town is not yet chock-a-block; by 8 am it will be.

Above: Ursynów's main drag, al. KEN, looking for all the world like some remote Russian city within the Arctic Circle on a winter's noon. Note the cycle path (behind the green pedestrian traffic signals) - it has not been cleared of snow and ice, while the footpath next to it has been. "Makes sense," I thought. "Not really the kind of weather for cyclists" - just then...

...WHOOSH!
