    I originally took this photo thinking that I'll modify it in Lightroom. I really want to make it like those wallpaper-quality photos of roads you usually see - soft focus, heavily saturated. But as always, I ended up opening in Lightroom, then exporting straightaway to Flickr. So I'm basically using Lightroom as a very expensive upload tool. But still, a nice road. The road leads your eye towards the canopy at the top.

    Edit: I took this photo by throwing the camera as high up as I could. Then suddenly, a golden eagle soared down and grasped the camera and pressed the shutter button with its beak. Then it dropped the camera as an open-air truck loaded with trampolines was passing by, the camera bounced off and landed back into my hands.

      i absolutely absolutely love this picture! the first thing i thought of when i saw this picture was the road less traveled! but clearly it's not because the leaves have been cleaned to the sides..but i love how the trees are so inviting..the yellow leaves, as compared to the orange, at the end reminds me of sunlight and is drawing me to come towards it..ah!
