If only the gate hadn't been there, the lines of the road would have been great.

Very pretty!

Very fine image of a simple but pleasing scene that would have been easy to overlook. Nicely spotted and captured. 8

7 - Nice scene. Criticism; undecided, but likely would prefer it with more height, especially with the road/lines, but realize you were probably going for this framing, just that the 640w restrictions do not do justice to this shot. Nice colors, and as mentioned, like the 'lines' and use of them.

The composition and perspective with the path has good impact. Contrast/light is a bit off.

Beautiful photo, I especially like how the road pulls your eye down into the valley

The curves in the road adds to the overall feel of this lovely image. Too bad the tree tops were cut off :( Still gets a 7 from me anyway :)

Maybe alittle too much orange here. The dirt and the tree's or weeds in the background are the same color.

Nice composition and colors
 11/11/2005 10:47:19 AM
Nice unusual perspective, good colors.
 11/10/2005 05:44:56 PM
Love the rolling hills and the lines the road makes.
 11/10/2005 04:54:10 PM
Might like to see a little more at the top, but I like the color and angle.

I think this is a very strong image. However, I wish it had included the tops of the nearest trees. The shape of the road is echoed by the tree trunks but cut flat at the trees. ( I guess you had crop something else from the top of the road maybe?) Even so the picture is very atmospheric.
