Photographer's Note
The road above the Combe Laval is one of the treasures of the Vercors mountain range. The road hangs precariously to the side of the mountainside with impressive views over the valley and plains beyond.

This is an impressive landscape. I like how you built that tunnel into your photo. Your photo also depicts the dizzying height of the location well.

Very interesting shot of a majestic place. I do a lot of cycling here in Canada, I would certainly enjoy this place. The addition of the biker in the shot makes for very good composition. Nicely done.

It looks like a face.....
This picture is a great one, the sharp rock, the softer background, the good light, foreground with some green and the biker "in the arch", all together, very nice done, Russell !

Wow, a very impressive photo, a great view of the road. Although it is an artificial tunnel, the scenery is still a very nice one. It is good idea to have a person there such that we can see the referenced size. Well done.

Great photo, I really like the composition and unexpected point of view. The atmospheric perspective on the background gives it necessary depth.
