One of the local nature trails takes you under a busy freeway. That explains the title (that and the fact that it reminds me of a serpent's belly scales). Some cropping. B/W conversion in Silver FX.

Ooo...this is nice. The lines the shadows make here are tight!. Really like this crop you have. Great focus and textures. 9

I love this sort of image! This is so well done, with the bold lined, deep shadows, tack sharp texture, and luminous conversion. I might crop in from the left just slightly, just enough to remove the highlighted sliver of area in the lower left, or maybe burn it down a bit. Or I might not. 9

Nice idea. Straightening the verticals at the left and right edges of the image would improve the image, I think.
