In the spirit of naming the contest after a song like @anotherscotsman did last week this weeks theme is "Long and winding road". Paul McCartney "The Long And Winding Road/My Love" Live 2009
The Beatles recorded several takes of "The Long and Winding Road" at their Apple Studio in central London

I am looking for picture like the one I took last week, just better ;):)

The rules are as per normal:

· The photographs must be your own work.

· Be creative and have fun.

· You may only submit one photo per contest.

· Please do not comment on photos until after the judging has taken place.

· The contest runs for one week, starting NOW!

· At the end of the week, The Judge (last week's Winner) will choose a 1st, 2nd, and 3rd place photo, providing as much feedback as possible.

· If the Judge is unable to complete the selection within 48 hours of the deadline for close, then a vote will be carried out to select a winner. This will be based on the number of "likes" each image has. In the event of a draw, the second place winner from the previous week will choose the tiebreaker.

· The 1st place Winner will start a new thread with the topic/theme of their choice, and act as the Judge for that contest. (Winner has 48 hours to create new theme, after that it defers to 2nd place).

· Winners please update the Weekly Photo Contest Master thread

I love road photos but have very few in my own portfolio.

I have been known to strap my GoPro onto my bike, however. :D And while this is only a small portion of the road (trail), I assure you my kids whine enough while we are out there to match the longest road you guys might actually post. :eek:

Philadelphia.
Cleveland's street cars (light rail trains) ran until 1954. The tunnels for the part of the line running under the Cuyahoga River still exist. This is the utility/maintenance corridor that runs parallel to the tracks.
Yes. The Cuyahoga is THAT river that has burned about 5 or 6 times in Cleveland's history.

Lynn Cove Viaduct, along the Blue Ridge Parkway (southeastern USA): one of the most beautiful roads on this planet! :)

There have been some jaw dropping submissions thus far. You all are really talented.

A few years ago when I rode motorcycles.... I took this with a point and shoot on one stretch of road. While I was riding ;)

What you're not telling us is that you took this photo while on your motorcycle, going 65mph, popping a wheelie, using two hands for the camera. Right? ;)
