The thing about the western landscape is that you can see forever. There is a classic view in so many places where the road runs in a straight line and there are mountains at the end. I thing that perhaps the best version is in Utah. But I saw this view on the way to Portal, Arizona. More on Portal in a later post. I promised Stan that I wouldn't shoot when I was driving, but when I saw this scene, I knew I had to take a few shots. What makes this one special, is the patch of sunlight in the distance, and the road in shadow in the foreground.
and no other cars on the road..
ReplyDeleteI never thought of this! Perhaps one or two cars came from the other direction over 10 or 20 miles. Makes the possibility of "An Airbag Moment" less likely... :-)
