Glad you liked it, and thank you for taking the time to comment! Getting feedback from people seriously interested in photography is one of the best things about DPC.

Thanks! Actually was standing by the roadside. It was a bit hazy and I zoomed the telephoto to compress the curves in the road. This also magnified the haze and I think added the overall softness of the image. I liked the effect, so I thought it might be worth entering. |

| I like the lighting on the road, but the rest is a bit to blurred for my taste |

| The only thing missing is a cyclist coming down that road. |

| An awesome road for a mountain bike, I'm guessing! I crave a bit more definition. |

| Ha, a road-scape. This one will do well for the awesome leading line, and maybe get dinged for sharpness. |

| I love the leading lines. A little on the blurry side though. |

| Nice composition. I can almost feel the road as I ride along it. |

| Lovely leading line and I really like the dawn/dusk lighting. I like that it has a soft focus effect which compliments the lighting however, there does appear to be a lot of camera shake due to being handheld at slower shutter speed. Just as a reminder to myself because I fall prey to this all the time, the best ratio of shutter speed to focal length for handholding is 1/zoom length. Therefore at 50mm the shutter should be no less than 1/50. And as a recommendation handholding any less than 1/50 - 1/60 is probably going to cause slight camera shake. A tripod could have helped here. |

On first view I didn't fancy this, but this really needs a 2nd viewing to really appreciate this.
I love the blotchy road, and how the left tree is OOF but the right one is in focus, so clever. |
