Love the first one! Might have liked to see a bit more road perhaps but just an idea. I think the second one would work if you panned the shot square on to the truck.

I just love shots of yonder and that is a lot of yonder. I really like the first one. The second one I kind of like but I don't know. I would not have panned the truck because the picture is of yonder. I might have used a slower SS to allow the truck to pass more. Kind of like a time relation suggestion ( things come and go but time stands still in a place like that).


I never, Not once claimed to read your post...

Both are great shots. The second one came out good, whether you meant to get more blur or not. The first one is also great, but a bit more road would be nice, like Flexi said. Very nice work.

Agree that first one really works, but would be better with more road.

This is the kind of road that gives you white line fever. Brings back memories. I have crossed Colorado more times than I care to count. :)

Thanks! I actually took a few at different speeds at this spot, but yeah the point is the landscape and what these fools are missing by speeding on by. :)

Fooled you, fooled you, "I got pig-iron, I got pig-iron" :) (from an old folk song) Thank Julian, I do want to get one though, with was just with my polarizer, but is is a single shot.

Thanks Becca, I was hoping to get some nice skies which was the impetus to go out exploring.

Thanks Stan, I do have a few others that do have more road. :)

This exploration too me to Kansas and back, despite gas prices, so you can calculate as an exercise what these shots cost me. :) What's funny is I love roads and landscapes like these, but certainly the can get boring pretty quick out towards Kansas.

Can't you just aim the car East, pull up the anchor and just coast into Kansas? It's downhill all the way and usually you got a tail wind. :mrgreen:

The clouds in #1 are awesome. I like the portrait perspective you use as it really shows off those clouds. Great shot and nice CPL use.
