Its a nice spot for a photo but this one is just a bit off to my eye.

I would like less foreground and for the road to go away at more of an angle to give the viewer a sense of motion.

Thanks for sharing
Joe

It should be cropped so that the left of the road is in the very bottom left of the photo. Thus only about a third will remain.

The title should be either "The Road Not Taken" or "The Road Less Traveled". (See poet Robert Frost.)

Tough critique, eh!

My apologies, but I like it just like it is. Nice and sharp, good colors....mostly, and it is a scene that holds a little mystery to it.....The only thing I don't like is the clouds seem a little too purple on my screen, not much but just enough to draw my attention away. Could be they were, I've actually seen clouds all colors? Nice shot, I like it!
Best Regards!
This was the true color of the clouds on the evening I shot this.....it was beautiful to see.

Thanks! I never wanted to be an old geezer...but you are what you are...right? LOL! Beats the alternative, so they say.....I won't argue that, but some days when the cold hits the old bones, you do wonder.....
Best Regards!
