You have created a great effect using black and white. Love the sky, I feel as if I am moving at 100 km/ph

This is just a stunning shot, you say you are an amateur photographer, my goodness what on earth you did to get such an interesting shot, the sky is just stunning. No matter what kind of equipment you have, you must be creative in your mind to see things in proper perspective. You have don a wonderful job my friend.

It is strange to see the stark contrast between the stillness of the road and the dizzying speed suggested by the clouds…

Road to nowhere or Highway to heaven,
either way, it looks thrilling!

Given that the road is sharp, it doesn’t look like the photographer moved. He could have used a very VERY long exposure, and that would be quite a capture. My guess: two exposures, or selective photoshop treatment to the cloud area of the picture. (He might have even zoomed the sky in camera.) Anyway he did it, it really is a striking image and is a great contrast between solid and “fluid.”

Fabulous image! I would not call you an amateur at all. This photo is full of life and has a distinct moodiness that I like. It’s a wonderful piece of work, Pedro.
