Description

Edit: Tone mapped to really bring out the colors :)

If it hasnt been established already, it looks like my "style" consists of using shots of paths, roads, vanishing points rather than just open landscapes. For some reason I like taking shots of paths/roadways like this. I like these kinds of shots because when you look at the photo, its almost like standing on the precipice of a journey. You know where the road begins and what it looks like at the beginning, but you don't know what lies beyond the vanishing point or around the bend.

Ahh, serene landscape photography. So nice, so peaceful. <img src="e.deviantart.net/emoticons/s/s…" width="15" height="15" alt=":)" title=":) (Smile)" />
The artist was very crafty in choosing the location of this piece, the road is covered in leaves and portrays a classic scene that reminds me of that one moment in The Lord of The Rings when Frodo meets the Ring Wraiths...except without the, well...indeed!
Vibrant colors, perfect position and scenery, and a good sense of shade and light, nothing seems out of place!

All and all, a wondrously enchanting piece that reminds us all that Autumn isn't all muddy yellow and brown leaves, but also red and scarlett like the sun setting over the horizon of a hero now journeying home. <img src="e.deviantart.net/emoticons/n/n…" width="15" height="15" alt=":nod:" title="Nod" />
