[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
On the "Transfagarasan" Highway, at almost 2000 m alt, you can be with your head in the clouds, literally ...

This is one of the most spectacular romanian roads, open only a few months a year due to heavy snowfall. Snow can still block the roads in June, while October brings the first new snowfalls.

Hello Vlad, very nice shot, congratulations...

Morning Vlad,
This looks indeed spectacular - I can see that there are avalanches expected by those protective tunnels.
I love it when I can drive through the clouds - this strongly reminds me of a travel experience when I was very young - it made a very strong impression on me then and this picture brings back that feeling.
Thanks
Els

Very nice shot...

Simple superb Vlad. Excellent colour and detail and that lovely misting cloud. A well composed image. TFS,
David

Such a beautiful setting for a road. The clouds give the impression of high altitude and the roofs over some section of the road indicate the avalanches paths. We have similar roads in Canada and yes they are snow blocked several times during the year due to avalanches. Good perspective and compositional skill. The image is attractive and show us and interesting scene in Romania. Thanks Vlad.

Hello Vlad,
A rugged and hostile landscape has been well captured!
Good point of view where the photographer puts himself "outside" the scenery...
A great atmosphere!
