  Kathy and Debra, Thank you so much for the wondeful compiments on my photo! This day was so beautiful, everything had frost on it so my daughter and I went driving around so I could take some pictures. This shot was actually her idea....so we backed up and I ran down into the ditch and started shooting! Thanks again! :-)

  I live in NW North Dakota...I think I live in a beautiful area but so many people hear 'North Dakota' and think of nothing but cold. I guess I am like you, I see the beauty in things so many people do not see!

  What a beautiful landscape Veronica, I just love the blue sky and the way the curved dirt road with its golden color compliments each other.

  I really enjoyed your Gallery and I think this is an outstanding Rural Winter Scene and capture full of color and tones as well as geometric design elements.
Well done Veronica.

  Beautifully done! Love the composition with the road curving. The lighting is great with the background darker, creates a bit of mystery. Love it :-)

  Thank you Susan, the road curves into what is called White Earth Valley and it was foggy down there but the sun was starting to peek through up on top where my daughter and I were at. I have been on that road 100's of times and never before seen it so pretty! I was at the right place at the right time I guess! Plus my daughter was driving and said I should take a picture! :-) Thanks again.

  This is an outstanding composition. I love the curve of the road taking you thru the photo. It is very sharp, colorful and peaceful. Great work.

  Did you re-submit this glorious photo, Veronica? Certainly hope so! It is almost 3-D with those trees on the left standing in such sharp relief against the background. Love the warmer tones and sweep of the road, too. Beautiful.
Congratulations on the EP--that's where I saw this.
