What an extraordinary, almost graphic, quality this image has. The detail throughout is an absolute joy. I particularly like the way the orange road markings lead the eye straight to those similarly coloured trees in the distance. I love it.

Wow, fantastic! Exposure, colors, composition, everything works really well. The sharpness is extreme (I'm not saying it's over sharpened!), I feel like I could touch the computer screen and feel the concrete (or whatever the road is made of).

Wow. This is one of the best road shots I've ever seen. It almost looks like a computer graphics simulation.

Fantastic Tomas. As already mentioned the sheen on the road gives the image and almost graphic quality. Was there some PS work because it doesn't look natural? It looks fantastic none the less. This one scream stock to me.

Yes there was PS involved, but only to get the reality back to the shot :wink:

Hey Tomas - where was this?
It reminds me of Vancouver Island BC.
