Day 086 - Down the road (2)

South Berwick, ME view map

This morning I knew that I wouldn't be home in time to do any kind of evening shot, so I drove around a little, looking for something to shoot. This is a dirt road just outside of an attached development that parallels a cemetery on the right (out of frame). Like most of my other PaD shots, I initially drove by this with intentions of a different shot altogether. I got about a 1/2 mile away and turned around (it took that long for my brain to process this shot apparently).

The reason I wasn't supposed to be home before dark related to an after work meet up for drinks with the group. That never happened, as I predicted, something important came up and kept a few of us there late. I wound up heading out with a coworker to check out his new property that he bought (just around the corner from this road). I find it interesting that this shot of a slightly muddy road, taken in the morning, is how I ended my day. We went muddin' in his Prius and my Suzuki (bike). I only wish the road we drove down was 1/2 as improved as this dirt road in the photo.

I really like the low perspective. I hope that you didn't get too muddy capturing this image. Non-PAD'ers don't understand the pressure of getting your PAD shot every day. Good job.
