I think a tighter crop is necessary, the top sky/field seems like wasted space.

Overall pictures loses impact. While roads are clear it has no center of interest to really draw your eyes.

I like it overall, but I'm not sure what to look at. The roads don't really grab me.

Yes, this fits the challenge and all that, but the photo is not very exciting for me. Nothing really to hold the interest.

Very pretty landscape. The blankness of the sky detracts a little bit, but I guess it was overcast, which brings out the colours of the trees nicely.

Good picture. The only suggestion I would make is to crop the picture just above the trees so the field is not seen.

ok shot, but needs some levels work (a bit dark and flat). subject matter is a bit static (ie not particularly interesting).

I wish the roads were not so hidden in this shot.

The road adds nice leading lines to this photograph. Intense color in the trees. The only thing I might have done differently is to crop it minus the skyline. Its not really important to the picture IMO. Still one of my favorites this week.

This is nice, but doesn't fully do it for me. I think there are two things going on here. First, the background destracts from the crossroads. I cropped from the top and right side and thought it worked better. Secondly, it would be nice to have something else in the photo, ideally a horse drawn carriage coming up to the intersection. Of course, we can't easily pull one of those out of our bag now can we? sigh... I really like the almost surreal look of the road and foilage. It has a nice mood created by the angle and the lighting on the bushes near the crossroads.

One of the better 'country road' shots.
  Photographer found comment helpful.

Yup. Look at them. Alll the way down there. And where are you? Above them. Try getting a little closer to your subject. At least get someone to drive down that road so you can take picutre of them.

Interesting scenery.. i think the colors need a little punch to improve the overall impact of this photo...

Nice photo, are those rocks on the road? Ok then it meets the challenge. good work.

great colors...I'd crop this one at the top of the line of trees for framing though.
