Great image, Gene!!! #182441Murry Grigsby August 30, 2003
Nice image, Gene. Great design and depth. Be careful standing in the middle of the highway :0) #182486Mette Vendelboe Allison August 30, 2003
Good one, Gene! I like the depth and contrasts! #182490Hayley Brooks Thistlethwaite August 30, 2003
IT's so hard to get a good road shot. The pavement is too grey worn, the road looks too flat. This is the best I have seen in a long time ! Great shot ! #182644Gene Spears August 30, 2003
Hi Beverley, Colette, Murry, Mette and Hayley and thanks for your comments! Murry, I appreciate your concern :) in this part of the country, it's the logging trucks you really have to look out for! #182646Patricia Marroquin August 30, 2003
Wow, this is so vivid, Gene! I love it! Great buzzing on this. ... Being a newspaper person, though, I kept trying to make out the name of the newspaper on that green paper holder below the mailbox and I can't. Which paper is this? :-) #182852Evy Johansen August 30, 2003
Wonderful perspective here! Like it very much, Gene! #182951Gene Spears August 31, 2003
Thanks Patricia and Evy. The newspaper is the Register Guard of Eugene, OR. In retrospect, I wish i'd have moved a littlt to the left so that "curves" sign was completely visible :) - gene #183300Patricia Marroquin August 31, 2003
Aha! Thanks for letting me know, Gene. It did appear to be someplace that could be in the Pacific Northwest. :-) #183361Evy Johansen September 09, 2003
