looks very desolate Nicolas, nice to see a slightly more untamed road and composition OK; maybe would be tempted to cheat a little and either brighten or contrast some more...would love to see some more of Armenia

Hi Nico,
I agree with Chris, more contrast would bring the image and its details out more :D

Paul.

I think you have done a good job too, I may of left the road as it was as in the re-edit the road is a little to black for me and draws your attention to much but thats just me, well done :D
Regards,
Paul.

I like the composition and the stormy mood!
