Totally awesome Lyn. I would be curious what lens you used. I am familiar with the auto setting as well. This is really clear and sharp. So lovely. Great post.

This is just brilliant. The line of the road, the two perfectly placed trees and the bulk of the mountains in the background. It's poetry in motion.
