On the Road Again


 
BetterPhoto.com All Time Best Photo Contest Editor's Pick BetterPhoto.com Photo Contest SECOND PLACE Winner   On the Road Again
On the Road Again
I placed camera on the yellow streak of the road headed to the Grand Tetons, Wyoming.

F20, 1/250th sec, ISO 320, 15mm focal length

You have produced a wonderful collection of photos using super-wide angle lenses shot with the camera on the floor or ground. This is absolutely stunning, Ken. Just made to be POTD, for starters!

  I'm with Michelle and others -- a big WOW from me, too. The use of the stripe would be enough but it's just the starter here. The sky and sunburst are gorgeous and the majesty of the Tetons is secondary -- how can that be?
