This road could be in Nevada, USA. They have roads just like this also New Mexico. Good shot from car.
Don’t often see too many pictures of the Falkland Islands. Definitely a long road through the treeless, grassy countryside on a long, straight, lonely country road in the middle of nowhere to your next destination. Wouldn’t want to be there in the middle of winter in July- very cold and windy and snow everywhere! Rebecca Hill
