Beautiful! The atmosphere is so deep and powerful. I understand why many believe it not to be sinister. The open road and landscape makes the piece feel open, despite the rain and dark colours. Very lovely piece!

It is a very lonely stretch of road and feels very scary ...
thanks for the insightful comment. I love it when someone does that.

this is just excellent, yvonne....i'm sure there's a horror movie out there whose DVD cover is simply waiting for this ... The Hitcher (w/Rutger Hauer & C. Thomas Howell) would have been the perfect complement for this effort

myrnajacobs In reply to wbcfor [2009-05-03 19:08:03 +0000 UTC]

Yeah... but it's a bit north and west of there. I love Denver and how you can see the mountains like that. I think I might like to live in Denver.

myrnajacobs In reply to stregatta75 [2009-05-03 19:05:11 +0000 UTC]

It feels a bit dangerous being there... no cell coverage and few cars... and in the summer, it is very hot.

hottoku [2009-04-28 19:00:13 +0000 UTC]

Wow, it looks like the road just goes on forever! That's some crazy atmosphere, too. Are the vertical lines (visible on the pavement) a reflection in the window? Or is the rain just coming down in sheets?

About what was the road sign advising?

myrnajacobs In reply to hottoku [2009-04-29 19:02:48 +0000 UTC]

Yes, that and some streaking from a previous wash of the window.

hottoku In reply to myrnajacobs [2009-05-05 17:54:30 +0000 UTC]

Cool, wasn't sure if it was a texture you added later - you use so many neat darkroom techniques like that.

You are most welcome! Haven't been that way in a while but probably will in a month or 2. Just got back from Seattle and Oregon. Sorting the digi stuff out; the film will be back tomorrow, I dropped it off on the way home from the airport! I can't help myself!
