I found this closed off ramp on google earth... there is NO WAY to see it from ground level... it is hidden in a little forest area becide the highway... it was an offramp from the DVP that they close off at both ends, and then filled both ends with dirt/grass/bush... you have to climb a big hill through a whole bunch of bushes and then you will find it there... they didn't even bother taking it out... i'm definately going to use it for some furure photo shoots...

BTW... if this was Advanced editing, it would look MUCH better... but this is the best I could do in Basic...

Like quite a few others in this challenge this one seems really heavily processed and again I feel it is detrimental to the shot.

I do love the way the road curves round and out of sight and the weeds really add a sense of "unused" to this image

Yep, that looks less traveled but for me, the colors are over-exaggerated.

I think the colours are a little overdone. The blue and greens are no longer real looking and the definition in the clouds has been lost. I am not a fan of Over-processed photos where the colours are no longer real.

WELL, THAT WOULD END A JOURNEY, WOULD IT NOT? CERTAINLY FITS THE CHALLENGE DESCRIPTION. COMPOSITION IS EXCELLENT AS WELL AS LIGHTING AND COLOR.
