      I never thought they got snow there, lol. Great shot. I have the urge to drive down this road at full speed!

      Great shot. The silence being there by yourself must have been deafening.

      I think that this shot would be interesting with maybe one car in the shot...just to be different from other shots like this one.

      Great enviromental shot. The snow and the faded background makes this one excellent.

      I have one that I took at the exact same spot! :-) Snow and the pale background make this photo look interesting and quite different.

      Just returned. By being alone, do you mean NO vendors? Oh, heaven! We saw it in rain one day which was dramatic as well. Very nice shot!

      i really like the washed out feel, the muted colours. Works for me. LovePhotography

      Its nice to see a shot of a familiar scene looking different - it's the first shot of monument valley under snow that I think I've ever seen. Very nice shot

      Neat seeing the snow! When I was there, the sky was hazy and blah. (Images for the Living Room)

      what an incredible image, wonderful, congratulations, seen in the landscapes of dreams.

    33. OrigamiKid (78 months ago | reply)

      The hazed out monumants in the background are what give it the dreamy quality. Nice work.

    34. williewonker (78 months ago | reply)

      The snow certainly adds a different dimension to this scene. Nice one.

      Look at my pics!

      Well we know where were goin
      But we dont know where weve been
      And we know what were knowin
      But we cant say what weve seen
      And were not little children
      And we know what we want
      And the future is certain
      Give us time to work it out

      Were on a road to nowhere
      Come on inside
      Takin that ride to nowhere
      Well take that ride

      Im feelin okay this mornin
      And you know,
      Were on the road to paradise
      Here we go, here we go

      Chorus

      Maybe you wonder where you are
      I dont care
      Here is where time is on our side
      Take you there...take you there

      Were on a road to nowhere
      Were on a road to nowhere
      Were on a road to nowhere

      Theres a city in my mind
      Come along and take that ride
      And its all right, baby, its all right

      And its very far away
      But its growing day by day
      And its all right, baby, its all right

      They can tell you what to do
      But theyll make a fool of you
      And its all right, baby, its all right

      Were on a road to nowhere
