Take Me Home.... Country Roads
Uploaded: January 12, 2012 03:05:24
-A Winter Afternoon in Texas-
Last weekend the cloud formations were very dramatic - I grabbed the camera and drove along one of my favorite back-roads to see what I could find interesting. I thought that the sky, this old tree and the country road went together very nicely.

Jeff, this is fantastic! That sky would draw any good photographer out of the house in search of scenes like this. Your pov makes the tree look so stately and proud, while the composition lets those stunning clouds rule over the land below.
