I took the photo mainly because I couldn’t believe how smooth the road was. The roads around the area I used to live in were just terrible so I pulled over to the side of the road and tried to time it so no cars got in the frame. It’s a pretty busy road so that was more challenging than you would think.
I think it’s cool how a photo of something as simple as a road can interest people. I’ve been guilty of thinking that there is nothing around me to photograph many times, so I’m trying to improve as a photographer and try to see ordinary things as extraordinary.
