Epic Journey (Photoset)

Featured on BIMMERPOST.com

It was a cloudy saturday and I had one goal today...to find a great photoshoot location. So I went up to one of my favorite driving roads and and risked parking on a small 2 (and sometimes 1) lane road overlooking Silicon Valley, hoping no cars would be coming around the blind corners. Lucky enough, no cars drove by while I had my car parked in the middle of the road.

And if you are looking for a desktop background, you can download the largest size from flickr:

And here's a shot of Silicon Valley. What a view:

Update:

A lot of people have been asking how I edited the photos. Well here's a screencast of my process:
