Slow Curve

Same spot as shot in this thread (http://www.photoshopcafe.com/cafe/viewthread.php?tid=52737), later in the season.
Processed with canned Ps filters, not Topaz. :x

...and just incase anyone believes that the sign has been altered for visual effects. It's hasn't been. The next curve is a hairpin to the left.

haha, nice shot! There's lots to look at like the sign, the curve of the road and where that may lead, and just the entire mountain range is great! Really cool! I would perhaps brighten the sign a smig and maybe smooth the road? Or maybe not because the rougher road contrast the background better...

It's a good thing I don't pay attention to road signs, because whoever follows this one is in for a bumpy ride...

bd ~ The sign does need a little brightening. I like the grain in the road surface but removed grain in the sky for better balance. Difficult to shot this range of mountains as it is into the sun.

i like it. The grainy look is kind of cool.

HAHAHA, no kidding!

Looks like a fairly straightforward sumi-e filter approach has been used. The overall effect esp the texture it adds to the road works well, tho I'd normally choose a fairly simple subject for this.
