Well Ruud, i'm sure that Rembrandt has left some of his spirit and artistic sense there and you have been affected. Lovely picture full of romance.
If I may raise a small critics, I would have cloned off traffic lights and cars. But everything depends on what you wanted to say with this.

Seem you also used his eyes for composition. Not one detail I would change. Just love the sunrays coming behind that tree.

Hope you had a nice day in office.

Funny that you waited a long time to post this one, because it is quite striking! Beautiful light and good composition, although I may have tried to avoid the road. Still, just for the colours and that winter morning feeling, great job!

Depth, colors, mist, shadows all are grabbed beautifully, Ruud!
It really looks classic.
I like the way you have included the road in the composition: Classic beauty in our days.

Well Ruud, you've done an excellent job. I'm new here and don't know anything about "the rules of making a good picture" But i know this is a very beautifull picture.

I also like these kinds of pictures.

Keep on going !!!

Ruud, man you amaze me. I love how your photos are consistently so good! this one is no exception - you've managed to take an everyday scene and make it look stunning! i think the beauty of it here is the perspective you chose, the off-centre vanishing point and the strong sharp silhouettes. i learn a lot from looking at your pics. thanks!! :)

Great POV and perspective Ruud - it is magical with its golden hue. Lucky to be in the land of Rembrandt and your picture indeed is a tribute to its glory.

I love the little traffic lights off in the distance to the left, it creates a nice dichotomy between nature and technology.

Oh, how I wish to be there. Nice mood and colours, great silhouette. DOF is also good. What I like even more, is the lead-in line. My eye does not go out of the image - although the bright sunny area draws my attention, the lead-in line takes it back into the image. Well composed and well done!

The gradations in tonality and light are what make this work so well. The diagonal, leading line finishes it very well.
