This is one of the commuting nights I have, but a bit different since I am riding a motor taxi - Angkas. It is not new to me to ride angkas but it's the first time I tried taking photos while riding a motorcycle.

It was my intention to capture blurred yet distinct images of the night lights and traffic. I wanted to create movement yet I still want it to be a familiar image. The blurred motion and lights show that feeling of unpredictability—like being in the middle of everything that is fast moving but not really in control.
