Location: La Jara, Colorado
Date: Nov 6, 2005
Aperture: F6.7

Editing: Crop (rotate slightly with this to level horizon); levels; clone out some tiny houses far in the background; lighten shadows; more levels; darken highlights; reduce color 25%; select sky; remove noise from sky; increase contrast; resize; unsharp mask; sharpen tool on small gate and chain on front gates; save for web.

This is just north of my tiny town of La Jara. Some people were going to build an RV park here - they got a grand entrance built and planted a few trees and that's as far as it got. Now there is this short road leading to nowhere!

Nice landscape! The wood seems a bit dark

No, this looks like a portal to a wonderfully rustic ranch!

Really really cool shot, it looks more like a beginning than an end, but I really like this one.
