This makes me want to be there and see what is around the curve.

Classic shot, and another one I would like to see as a set with all the seasons.

The frame mimics the road quite well but is distracting. Love the picture otherwise.

Love the way the road leads me into this lovely scene. Not fond of letterbox framing, and even less so in portrait orientation.

I am not a frame nazi, but the white/black frame really harms this image in my eye

Very nice composition.

Some people don't like this border, but I like it very much. :-).
