Kind of an open-ended question. Do you want comments on composition, technique, exposure, depth of field, etc.?


In leui of that, I'll ask a composition question for you....what's the center of interest in your photo?

The shadows and the light.
But looking at the picture with more attention, I've noticed that there's no real CoI.
This was an old pic, but I wanted to know how to improve it.

Here's a question to consider: what is this photo about? What's the subject -- either a physical object, or the "idea" that is the focus?

When I look at the photo, I see a road leading into the distance, without anything to particularly catch my eye. Some photos like this can work -- because the lines, shadows, or geometry of it all can be "the subject". In your case, this isn't strong enough to keep my interest.
