“Let Your Light Shine Down on Me”
Oh, those good ol’ Arkansas dirt roads…
I caught these autumn sunbeams from the low setting sun, illuminating a dusty country road. I used a bit a of adjustment of the hue and saturation to bring out the light rays.

Creative rendition of the winding road with light awaiting…..you captured so many emotions. I can find no singular element to explain the event; the translucency, the blacks, the mist, the detailed tire tracks, the complimenting colors, and all of the little elements that produce more than the sum of parts. Great shot!
Jolie

especially love the way in which you have presented the capture with the narrative!
