This is an image of a road off of Samtiago Canyon road. It is in Tribuco Canyon I beleive. It is a very scenic route. I saturated the image with photoshop CS2.

This works ok. The image is a little on the small side and you lose impact when compared to others in the challenge. Did you look at this in B&W? I think it would make a stronger presentation. JMO of course. Good luck in the challenge.
Looks like a lovely road with the old trees hanging overhead. Besides feeling a tad tilted to the right, the shot seems to be a bit blue. Perhaps a quick auto-levels adjustment would bring out some of the natural greens/browns of the trees?
I like how the road leads up and into the frame. Also, the trees do give a nice "frame" for the shot. However, there are some things that could make this a much stronger photo, I think. Move more to the center of the road (if there is little or not traffic, obviously). I think that will make it feel more balanced and not so chopped off on the left. Also, it seems to have a bluish cast to me. Maybe "warm up" the white balance just a hair. Finally, take advantage of the size. Your shot is about 1/2 or a 1/3 what it could be. Ask in the forums, or look at the tutorials if you don't know how to resize for dpc.
