Hello from the Critique club, my name is Jon Rowe, and i will be looking at your image this evening :)

Composition/Lighting : composition and lighting are perfected in this. exposure is spot on, the unlevel horizon probably threw a few off, but as one said the phone poles show that it is naturally unlevel, and that is more than likely the reason for all the 5 votes. I cannot think of one thing that needs to be changed to this beautiful image.

Challenge : This definitely meets the challenge. The road is beautiful, clouds are amazing, and very well put together, especially using the basic editing rules. very well done.

Conclusion : this is a great shot, i honestly cannot think of any way to make it better. i sat and stared at this for sometime, and literally think it's perfect. congratulations on the top 20 placement which this great image, very good job. nice choice w/ the b&w conversion, it works well.

Keep on shootin!

Good luck on your future challenges:)
-Jon Rowe

Wow! Took a bit to see this picture. I know, you work with what you've got, but the colors are muted and the lighting is a bit dark - brighter colors and lighter would have helped.
