This dirt road was part of my trek up the face of the Remarkable Ranges. The winds were strong and I loved the way the trees are nearly stripped bare of all the fall (autumn) leaves, coating the road edges in yellow. I used the road to strongly lead us into the image, right down to the misted mountain range in the distance.

Don’t let a cloudy day turn you away from a photograph. Even colour can pop off the charts when the sky’s are grey and stormy. Minimise the grey where you can, by drawing the attention of your viewer to something other than the drabness of the sky. Another trick to try is to dramatically increase your contrast setting in your camera, which will help to define the cloud formations.
