“Bend in a Wisconsin Road” (2008)
This photo was taken on highway 35/54 in Wisconsin, which is right across the river from where we are. When no cars were coming I got out of my car and took this photo. This is a Photographic Element of Curves. I toned down the colors of the photo to fit the mood of the weather. It was a cloudy day and looked like rain. I personally love the lonely feeling you get when you look at this.
