Thanks, Stan, but Loren was a male name long before the ladies stole it (they end up with almost all male names).
Usually go by Larry. Glad you liked the site.

Spooky to say the least. The converging road disappearing into the darkness gives the feeling of depth. You would have a perfect troll on the right if you remove all the lights except the two over the nose IMHO would add to the spookiness. Oh, one last thing: Based on the story this picture tells me, I would change the caption to 'and miles of fear before I sleep'.

I started to go with fear, but I got sleepy.

Good grief! - you were so tired you didn't realise you were driving on the wrong side of the road!

Quite the daredevil I am.

Very effective use of post processing to clarify a concept. You might consider dropping the words. As Stanley Kubrick said, "If Leonardo had written on the 'Mona Lisa,' 'This lady is hiding a secret from her lover,' it would have ruined the painting forever." His movies exploited the open-mindedness of experience, as in "2001."

Usually I would agree with your observation and let viewers interpret as they saw it.
This time I felt compelled to offer a shove toward my own thoughts and point of view.
Also, I didn’t actually write on the image. Had I written at the top as is usual at UHH, no one would take notice at all.
Your comment is valid, but remember, the rule is ‘no rules’.

Got it. However, as a rule, "no rules" is a no-no for me. First, I strove, (and advised my student to strive) to master the "rules" (usually visual principles based on human vision, selected via tradition, garnished by technology) and then advance them or know how to effectively break them.

I really like this line...
(usually visual principles based on human vision, selected via tradition, garnished by technology)
However, slavish, rock-solid adherence to the orthodoxy of any line of endeavor stifles imagination and discovery.
I’m satisfied in my mind that Paleolithic cave artists followed ‘magic rules’ in their work; but someone, somewhere, sometime questioned, abandoned, or modified the rules.
Of course learn/teach the rules, but experiment, too.
