First off I most say I really like the green colours and how they contrast perfectly with the road and the fence.
I also like the perspective and the way the lines drags you in to the view.
However, I feel it's a bit boring that the road and the mountains in the background are all centred. I think this shot could have been more interesting if you had used the rules of thirds, to make it more dynamic.
The other thing I was thinking about was the sky, it appears a bit grey to me. Especially since the grass and the road have such nice contrasting colours. I don't think it would hurt to make the sky less grey. Though it's a matter of opinions, and maybe you wanted it like that, I don't know, I'm no mind reader after all. e.deviantart.net/emoticons/b/b… " width="15" height="15" alt="
It's a very interesting shot, and you can't help but wonder what awaits at the end of the road.
I'd say it's a job well done to capture this e.deviantart.net/emoticons/n/n… " width="15" height="15" alt="

Thank you very much TheRedLightning for your critique. It was great and fair.
I was captured by the view to and directly saw that this could be a great picture.
The fun thing is that I usually prefer and shoot with the golden rule in mind. But this time I wanted a bit more symmetry in the image. But your right, it would look very interesting with putting the road at the rule of thirds.
I agree about the colors. I just think that I got to much caught up in the green and the brown so I forgot about the sky. That would actually make the picture stand out more.
Thanks again for your great feedback!

I can understand that
I read in this photo book that if you know all rules about photo you could and should break them sometimes, because you're aware of what you're doing and why you're doing it.
It's also great to see a fellow Swede take such great photos, you make me proud, thank you~
I hope you'll take lots of great photos in the future, and I look forward to see how you'll improve too
