Crack in the Road

.......

A change of pace for you and quite nice. I like the perspective and the golden tones.

This appeals to me aesthetically. I love the tones that you've chosen here. And I love road shots because they REALLY draw your eye into the shot!!

IMO, one of your best recent images. Very nice texture, tones, and perspective.

Excellent - the crack in the road brings closure to the bottom of the photo.

Very, very good!!

A good change Howard,very nice crop,I like the warm colors,Well executed as usual.7/6 Pnina

Howard, this works EXTREEMLY well for me! I've been trying to create such photos for a year now, with no luck.... and again, your sharpening technique I like! :)

Howard, nice sense of depth and warm tone for winter. I like it. BTW, might be a good idea to have a rear-view mirror when shooting something like this next time as you'll never know what might be coming from behind. ^_^

Howard, the textures of this picture are so interesting. From the asphalt of the road to the land surfaces on its shoulder. And...nicely coloured. Rick

Howard, I LOVE this one! Visually very appealing, with the golden tones and great texture. Great composition!

Very good indeed. The crack, the grain of the road and the depth in this photo.

Howard, this is a very nice photo, I have paused upon it often, hence I had to remark on it. The textures are incredible. It is always nice to see your work! Have a healthy and creative 2005. Regards, TK

I guess I'm not the only one liking this :)

 

Wonderful. 6/7!

Not sure why I like this so. I guess it is the color....no, it's the texture....no, I think it is the crack across the bottom of the page.

 

Maybe all of the above...:-)

Howard- I love the color and the texture. Nice composition too. Super job!

It does work well, despite (or because of) breaking some of the compositional "rules".

 

To me it tells the story of a place often passed but seldom noticed. Of choices to be made (to stay or to leave). A story told with a hint of nostalgia ... a moody creation. Well done.

 

PS It makes me think of the book "A Thousand Country Roads" (RJ Waller).

Simple, yet beautiful!
