°•° Long Way to Nowhere °•°

Motivation
Someday in Dec. afternoon at Jamshidiyeh Park (a park at foot of Tehran's North mountains) when I was waking around I reached to this location, there were many steps ahead and from my view it was not easily seen but a COBBLESTONE road and a dry STREAMLET.
It looks like a road through the threes to nowhere; while I was singing the lyric (SEE I'VE COME A LONG WAY. TO NOWHERE. FORGIVENESS IF YOU PLEASE. LET IT RAIN DOWN ON ME ... SEE I'VE COME A LONG WAY. TO NOWHERE…) took this picture.

Location
Jamshidiyeh Park, Manzariyeh Ave., Niyawaran Ave., Tehran.

P.P. Jobs
The original file was in Row format, saved as JPG in Pentax Photo Browser then in Corel Paint Shop Pro X (Version.10.01), I applied I.R (infra Red) Filter effect to enhance the mood which I felt for taking this picture.
And then at Photo Shop CS2 I made some adjustments on Auto Level, Auto Contrast and 7% Burning Effect on a Layer.
At last I added a white frame and resized it.

Hope you enjoy my job.

Best Wishes,
Javad.

javad,
as i showed it to my boos/master instructor he was delighted to see parts of tehran. he is also from tehran(he still has family there).
anyway, this picture can become more lively if you raise the contrast a bit more.good pov and this b/w composition gives this one a bit of mystic feeling.

Hi Jay,

A very nice mood here, by making this in black and white.
