I like the shot. Is that a golf course on the right side of the picture?

Nicely composed. My eye zips right down the road and my mind's eye fills my imagination as we go around the first bend.

Oooh, I love this and I love a good fossil collection too. Of course, when I read the title, I thought I'd scroll down and see a gorge with all sorts of wonderful, framed pictures hanging on the walls. Sometimes, I wonder about me. I love this shot, the POV is perfect!

Following the end of the road and wondering, if it is going through a tunnel, after that? majestic surrounds! - almost scary and claustrophobic to me, that's why I am living on top of hill ;) BB

Spectacular landscape and a superb capture. The dark mass in the center looks like a great wound in a gentle hillside.

When I read the e-bot I had a brief vision of a huge table with folk stuffing their faces with drawings and paintings. My mind doesn't improve with age. Still, this is amazing and REAL which is so much more exciting!

It does look like a fascinating terrain from this well-composed photo. One of the areas of my state that I've been meaning to visit, but haven't gotten around to yet...
