Default Twisty Roads

I need photos of twisty roads or a very straight road leading to a horizon. If anyone has any decent photos like this taken with thier camera i would be very grateful if i could use them.

The problem with Flickr/Google images is that when they are enlarged even slightly they become very pixelated. Thanks to anyone who can elp or point me in the direction of some photos.

It doesn't matter. If i need an empty road i can always Photoshop them out. I just need photos that are enlargable.

I have a little Graphic Design task at my college that i need some photos for. I'm not going to design anything then make lots of money from it or anything. If i do become rich though, i'll contact you and pay some royalties.

On Flickr, contact the owner of an pics you think may do the job and ask them if they have any larger versions. Flickr resizes them when you upload them, but most people are happy to let you mess around with the original.

Try Flikr.com or Fotothing.com
Dedicated photography sites. Loads of people willing to help in Fotothing.com so should be a problem. Sorry I can't help you our local roads are simply not.

ps Can't you upload more of your pics on your site. It's a bit dry IMO. People like to see more samples of your work to get them interested. Like what you got though. Think you're a great photographer.
