The Road Ahead

Uploaded: November 15, 2012

Description

Another "stop the car now!" moment on the drive through the Westfjords region of Iceland. We crested a hill,
and there was the road, snaking down and back up the other side of this shallow valley in the highlands.
As usual, not another car in sight, so the thin black pavement stands out, empty, like a ribbon on the land.
