Intersting.
03/17/2009 05:34:48 PM
Well titled.
03/17/2009 09:18:23 AM
Beautiful scenery. Nicely captured.
03/17/2009 06:19:55 AM
Great colours but a bit small to really appreciate it.
03/16/2009 03:17:39 PM
The water looks so lovely and calm, and I love the mountains in the background. Very nice shot.
03/16/2009 04:12:34 AM
nice shot
03/15/2009 11:03:52 PM
a bit flat needed more boost in the aqua
03/15/2009 10:13:37 PM
Unusual jade-like color in the water. Nice shot.
03/15/2009 05:40:32 PM
lovely colors.
03/15/2009 03:32:33 PM
Beautiful colors
03/15/2009 11:56:17 AM
A lovely scene, I've never seen water that colour before. Gorgeous mountains.
03/15/2009 11:40:14 AM
Ha Ha, needs a bridge! Nice shot
03/15/2009 11:02:24 AM
or a road to beauty, love the mountain ranges covered with snow, very pretty
03/15/2009 10:57:53 AM
I like the "flow of the water through the photo. Colors could have been bumped up a bit and could have been a bit sharper
03/15/2009 06:20:51 AM
nice but .. dunno bit shady or something... 4
;D brano
03/14/2009 10:29:21 PM
An optical illusion? It's neat either way.
03/14/2009 06:14:40 PM
amazing scene
03/14/2009 03:07:21 PM
Beautiful panorama. The color on the water looks a bit "muddy".
03/14/2009 12:56:16 PM
a little off the bottom would have brought the road more into play imo
03/14/2009 11:20:23 AM
It certainly does look like a road without a reason, doesn't it?
03/14/2009 04:52:07 AM
What a beautiful view with the strange colored water and the snowy mountains in the background! I like the title
03/13/2009 11:46:52 PM
Interesting capture! 7
03/13/2009 04:50:39 PM
Amazing place. I'm not a fan of too much PP, but i wish the colors were stronger. Maybe adjusting the green would create a beautiful effect. Good luck, sorry if i was rude.

The water here has a beautiful blue colour to it.
03/13/2009 02:23:48 PM
this is ok.. nothing super spectacular IMHO
03/13/2009 02:22:58 PM
With your composition, you really did make that road look like it appears out of nowhere and disappears again into nowhere.
03/13/2009 01:57:07 PM
I feel like the colors could be a little more saturated or something, this is a beautiful landscapre but it doesn't pop the way I think it could.

Good angle of view, the whole image feels a bit dark though.

03/13/2009 01:09:05 PM
You wouldn't want to drive too quickly down that road would you :)
03/13/2009 12:38:56 PM
There isn't a strong focal point in this photo.

03/13/2009 12:01:37 PM
wow, this is beautiful
03/13/2009 01:24:46 AM
Lovely place. The color of the water seems "off" somehow. It's like it's glacier melt and maybe it is. Well titled.
03/12/2009 11:37:06 PM
Good clarity throughout. More color would've scored higher...seems a little flat.

Nice scene, but I think some added contrast would be beneficial.
03/12/2009 09:05:24 PM
Nice natural tones and good detail. 8
03/12/2009 03:55:41 PM
I like the title, I think I may have missed the road at first glance without it. Nice job.
03/12/2009 10:43:12 AM
Story shot for sure.
03/12/2009 10:35:54 AM
It looks that way, nice shot.
03/12/2009 09:52:55 AM
Overall a pleasing shot but the colours feel a little unnatural and I wish there was a stronger focal point of perhaps a boat but not a lot you could do about that.

nice shot, but i would crop the bottom of the image a little more to focus on the road, land mountains and the rest of the lake
03/11/2009 09:49:14 PM
Looks like a landing strip for a drunk pilot! Good shot.
03/11/2009 09:04:06 PM
LOL @ the title. :) This is beautifully shot, but could use some 'punch' in processing, I think.

Not voting yet.

Interesting water color. Mountains look really distant. Not sure about the road - did you ask if they could move it so you could take the picture? ;-p
03/11/2009 06:40:34 PM
would need some contrast
03/11/2009 01:41:37 PM
this is a very pretty location, could curves/levels helped with the dull tones in the shot...the water is very pretty
03/11/2009 09:14:11 AM
That's an amazing view - I hope I'll be able to find out where it is after the challenge. The combination of the snow-capped mountains and beautiful water is really nice. I like the composition you chose, with the bit of the road visible as wel.
03/11/2009 09:04:45 AM
Insufficient impact to really score high. needs a little more punch in the colors.
03/11/2009 08:14:47 AM
Nice layered look. Good use of Rule of thirds.
