Mostly I don't like these through-the window shots. But on your first one here, the colors are fantastic. The sky color is echoed in the hood reflection, and the golden sunset (rise?) is echoed in the road's yellow line, but perpendicular. I like it.

Normally, I'd agree, but as you can see from my pics on the previous page, the heavy traffic precluded getting out of the car and taking better shots.

Window shots can be tricky, and the fact that the windshield usually acts as a filthy color distorting filter doesn't help matters.

This is particularly harmonious. Nice.

The guy they named your town after is slipping up on the job.

Plenty I can contribute, not anywhere near as stunning as some of the shots posted here.

A real rough road.

Cool idea! Here's a couple from a recent dogwalk (hike/bike path and a park road)
