Centered and on a Road Trip (Black & White)

            For this image, I decided not to crop the nearby portion as I wanted to bring out that entire setting of the road ahead with the graveled feel to the asphalt highway. I later converted to black & white using Silver Efex Pro 2 where I used some color filters to bring out a much richer tonal contrast for the final image. That tonal contrast really came out even more bringing out a very textured feel on the road. One can easily see the traveled and not traveled portions of the highway.
