Perspective and the Horizon

On the Road, originally uploaded by Roveclimb.

I was thinking about pictures like this this past weekend. I was walking my neighborhood, and looking for a street that would give me just the right shot.

I didn't find one.

But today, Roveclimb posted this picture, which fills the bill perfectly.

There's something that just draws me into this shot. The way the lines converge at the horizon, and the sense of motion from the clouds and the sides of the road, give this life.

Momentarily I feel like the universe is in front of me.
