I am amazed to find this image, as opposed to my "death of summer" and "death of summer III" is the one generating so many comments! I guess people like road shots.
On a technical note, I may have a broken auto-focuser on my D70. I have been focusing by hand, but it is more difficult than it looks.
I can have the autofocuser fixed, but I don't want to give up my camera for a few weeks. Separation anxiety!
Any tips on hand focusing? I never seem able to tell exactily when it is focused or, like this shot, when it is not.
Thanks again for your comments, Matej!
Regards,
Matt

This image has a sharpness/focusing problem - there doesn't seem to be anything clearly in focus. I don't know for sure what focal length you used, but 1/60s was probably too slow for it. Then there's the aperture, which, even under sufficiently fast shutter speeds, will not give you a very large depth of field. A tripod would let you stop down considerably, while not having to worry about camera shake. Alternatively, using a higher ISO setting should at least let you handhold safely at the aperture you used.

Makes you want to travel the road, but it is a long way from my home in England!!

You might have been on this road if you have been to rural Pa. I, however, have been on about 1000 roads like this!
Thank you for your comments! My son was off to the left yelling at me to get out of the road when I snapped this one.
Regards
Matt

I swear that I have been on this road. Wonderful simple composition. Great feeling and depth.
