Beautiful, glowing sky! Good entry. I'm wondering what the picture would look like if the road didn't go straight into the middle, but a bit more from one side - I don't know - something to try. ~8

I saw several grapes painted to look like they were angry posted here with this title, but this is the only picture that actually captures the story. Very well done. Sepia is a nice touch.

Comment by Silent Sister:
This is a perfect shot depicting the book title. Though this photo might be boring without the challenge, it works so well here. Lots of dry earth, unyielding and flat that goes on forever. 9

Nice Sepia. Steinbeck, I think, would certainly approve. You have captured well the sad journey of the Joad family forced from their land to seek imagined California riches. Now if you just had a determined turtle crossing the road it would be perfection. :)

ok I've scolded other photos for not fitting with thier title if you don't know the book, BUT this picture captures the image in my mind when I read that book PERFECTLY. Very bleak and powerful. Nice sepia - looks like a period photo. very nice 10

I read the book so I get what the picture is, but everyone who hasn't had the pleasure might get confused about the picture. I think I would have liked the horizon to be higher in the frame. That would have made a stronger statement about the unending road. The sky is not an important part of the image and yet you've given it almost 2/3 of the space.

Nice photo, but I guess one has to know the book to really understand how it fits the title.
