Pictures of a freeway interchange covering the earth

Stock photos of freeways covering the planet earth as in they paved over paradise and put up a parking lot, or just more roadways. Complex freeway interchange. Pictures of freeways covering the earth and illustrating environmental, ecological and conservation issues. The planet earth totally covered in freeway interchanges - enviromental concept stock images, business concepts, fine art prints, images on merchandise.

This is a Stock photo, a picture of the earth viewed from outer space wrapped in freeways to illustrate such concepts as environmental problems, ecology, conservation, transportation, connection and future. This concept stock image can be licensed through Corbis. The image is a Photoshop composite. Creating this ecologically oriented stock picture was no easy task! I photographed the freeway interchange form a Bell Jet Ranger helicopter using a Hasselblad camera and medium format Ecktachrome film. The film was scanned on a Scanmate 5000 Drum scanner. I then created clipping paths using the Pen Tool in Photoshop to select the freeways. I duplicated and re-arranged the freeways creating a far more complex interchange. I must have had over 150 layers by the time I was finished. I also had to duplicate cars and reposition them. From other photographs I used greenery, trees, shrubs and the like. I created a separate file of the star field using various sized air brushes (again in Photoshop) to make the stars. Finally, I used the distort filter set to "spherize" to make the freeway image into a globe, then copied and pasted it into the image of outerspace (the star field).
