Default The road to clear skies (B&W)

Getting to like this B&W thing. I am trying to find shots that fit the monochrome label. Saw a bit of clear sky with the road leading to it and thought "click". PAUL

Love this shot Paul, it was made for B&W too. Love all the lines leading to the bend, and the clear sky ahead!

Yep, Paul. I agree. The clear sky calls for a click. I really like the lines in this image.

Thanks Mike. Nearly ended up as roadkill though. The things we do for a click! PAUL

I guessed this was Derbyshire before even seeing your location! Lovely shot, black and white suits it perfectly.
It takes me back to my childhood and long walks with the family ending with a pub lunch Great memories, thanks for sharing

Thanks Junglebear. This is the road from Woodhead pass down into Glossop. You may be interested to know I'm a Sheffield lad, born and bred, but living in Derbyshire for my sins. PAUL
