Highland Roller Coaster

A classic shot of Cape Breton Highlands NP, Nova Scotia in the fall thought the skies are usually bird blue with not a cloud in the sky in the typical post cards. ....but this how I like it. I'll be there in about a week and a half. Can't wait and hope the color is good and the skies are stormy! ....and yes there was snow there the 2nd week of October 2009!

Canon 5DM2
Canon EF 70-200mm f/2.8L at 105mm
ISO200 1/10sec f/16
SR 2-Stop Gradient

Thanks for all your comments on my last WC post

I like the subdued colors here and the meandering road.

Excellent photo, Eva! I love the perspective that the winding road adds and the colors/detail are superb. As Stan mentioned, the only down side is the grey skies.
