Very nice. I love road shots, and this one is a beauty.

Once again, you and I have shot the same subject from the same spot and we come away with entirely different impressions. You use (as usual) a towering vertical wideangle to take advantage of those spectacular clouds. The curves in the clouds echo the gentle curve in the road that leads to the cliffs and then to the sky. I used a long telephoto and a horizontal format to stress the dip in the road at the base of the cliffs -- the road seem to end incongruously abruptly.
