First ever Editor's Choice Award

I'm very happy and proud to announce that my photo was published in +Camerapixo magazine, created by +Anetta G. Heller and +Artur J. Heller and it was named Editor's Choice. That's first ever Editor's Choice award I earned anywhere. My photos aren't published in the magazines (online or printed) very often so it's even more important for me. Thank you very much!

Today's photo was taken in Hala Kondratowa in Tatra mountains. I wanted to compose it in such a way that the road leads the eye through the scene and I think I managed to achieve that. I used 5 exposures and tone-mapped them in Photomatix Pro 5 beta.
