The Only Road, The Only Car
by Caj Källmalm (Fixxxer) 
Camera:
Pentax K100D
Location:
Tossåsen
 
Sweden

Photographer Notes:
Tossåsen is a village of nine houses where native Scandinavians (Samis) live. It's located about 40 km through desserted forrests full of wild animals like bear an moose on gravel roads from the nearest other community. The only communication is this gravel road - no other road exist - try to get there without a car...

Reminds me of Duane Eddy's "40 Miles of Bad Road," Caj. Your image does an excellent job of conveying the solitude. Good composition, too. Great start for this month's special category!

Well... now that I look at it, I think it's a little to blurry, Maybe I should have downsized the image instead of lower the quality. hmm... Anyway, thank you guys for the very kind words! It really means alot! Haven't read that book, Mike, pherhaps I should? ;)
