I think the top 2/3rds of this photo are really nice. I don't think the bottom 1/3rd of the photo add much to the image though. I would crop this on the bottom, right below the large green bush on the right side of the image, just above the highest part of the shadow in the FG.
I like the color of the sky, but it almost looks unnatural. Is this the natural color? I really like the looping road in the center of the image as well as the straight road running through the center of the photo. All in a ll a very nice scene.

Thanks for your comments.
As for the sky, I am not sure if it's natural. I just did some saturation. I tried to make it as natural as posible. I just have to train my eyes a little bit more.
As for the cropping part, I wanted to add my shadow (bottom right) to the picture. So that explains my cropping, but not sure if it adds or distracts to the scene. I guess less is more sometimes.
Cool shot. Very absorbing! I personally like how you got your shadow in there, gives it a twist.
This photo could be used as an example of "non" urban sprawl. See how grouped together the buildings are?
One thing you must fix though - that CW tilt. It is tilted about 1-2 degrees (or more) clockwise. You can fix this in some photo-editing s/w.
The way to road extends from the city, and the way it almost 'connnects' to the curve.. Not sure if this is harmonious. Seems a little strange to me, but, it is also quite different.

I like taking picture's on twin peak too as you know. Your blue saturation is a little strong. I recommend a little color correction. Is that your shadow in the lower right of the frame?

Too bad all the people who know how to run this country are busy running taxicabs or cutting hair.
I preferred it before i scrolled all the way down.
The top 2/3 or so is good, with that contrast ebtween the curve of the road and the straight city grid.
But the bottom with the shadow, and your shadow, I don't think adds to the image.
