Long road home!  by salza

Long road home!

Out walking with the mutts, taken on Christmas morning. I love how the road seems to just disappear.
Wow, that is one long road for the mutts!

I agree -- the long road just disappears into infinity. Do you notice a little tilt to the horizon? If so, you might just use a picmonkey quick-fix. Hope I'm not offending!!

@ribbet9 they do love walking it though. I can walk for about 45 minutes one way without turning off this road! Many week days I walk for half an hour and then turn around as I have to get home and get things organised to start work. My furries will often get home from the hour long walk and demand that the ball gets thrown!
@taffy I did notice but when I 'straightened' it the dogs appeared to be listing! The surrounding area is also not very level. Might just be my shabby eyesight but I decided to leave it.

@salza Interesting as I'd also noticed the dogs were straight up and down. So much depends on our angle when we shoot the photo, doesn't it?

I love it too....really draws you into the shot. Love those dogs!! They must have such a great time having so much room to run and play!!

lovely pov and vanishing point... as @taffy points out, perspective can be darned tricky!

@taffy @northy thanks for your feedback, it's always appreciated. Not that it excuses the skew issues but when I take the furries out I don't usually take the camera, I just have my phone. The area I walk in is quite undulating and I often have a problem getting a shot in which everything looks straight! Maybe I should try a lower perspective, definitely some food for thought.

Lovely image and the road does seem to disappear which makes one think it is a long way off. FAV

nice pov!

magnificent perspective Sally

Great landscape. And interesting reading the comments above re the straightness.

@taffy @kwiksilver @northy I have played around a touch more with picmonkey and have managed to get the horizon straighter without the mutts looking like they are listing (well at least not too much)!
December 28th, 2014  
@salza Oh yes, that works so much better - for me anyway ;)
December 28th, 2014  
oh yes... i think that helps bunches! it IS hard when you're trying to keep up with charging feet ... so little time to lock focus much less worry on whether the camera is straight!

such a gorgeous landscape!
December 28th, 2014  
Big difference!! Hard edit to do but you did it.

Great shot of the Endless Road and the happy paws who travel upon it!
