This road goes through the interior of the Sutter Buttes not far from work. A storm went through Wed and left these clouds hanging around so I headed out after school.

Opened 2 exposures in Raw: one for sky, one foreground, Channel Mixer for b&w conversion, Levels, overlay layer to dodge and burn, Photo filter for sepia

I just love the B/W tones in this shot. Great curves and leading lines.

Very nice scenic. I love the winding road. The only thing I would like to see more of is some highlights on the mountains.

Very nice. I really like the scene, the road and the composition. I like the leading line of the road taking me to the mountain and then underlining the mountain. I think that works very well. I'm not so sure I like the sepia as much - it shows up a bit to strong for me in the sky while the land look more b/w. It might have been better if you could have backed down a bit on the sky effect of the sepia.

Fantastic location. Not loving the sepia, would have preferred true B&W, but that's just a personal preference obviously - GRIN!

Beautiful. Is this a duotone? Oh ok, I see sepia. It's really love. The undulating road and the sky - awesome.

Great details, i envision a jogger on a Nike commercial or something running down this "path." Nice shot, stellar editing!
