[tjoles2008]

I can't wait to go back to Greensboro in Oct! I had a blast when I was up there in April. I miss Greensboro SO much!

[tjoles2008]

I miss Gboro SO VEY MUCH!! After my trip in April, I so didn't want to leave!! I want to move back there so bad it's not funny!!

[sunshineunc]

@gotthkid2....I'm gay...so, no one,knows more about being judge than I do!! I will agree Some parts of north carolina do still pretty much have those people that judge u....but you get that in a lot of places not just N.C...if u live in a major city such as charlotte and raleigh with a lot of diversity... and a few other cities here u don't see it much as u do in a small town!! I never said that we didnt have issues...but we are not some back wooded uneducated state with nothing to do!!

[common07]

@sunshineunc I agree with you! NC has great areas and bad areas just like any other state.

[keithjohnson20988]

@common07 bad areas are Durham and Fayetteville i know fayetteville because i live near it good areas are Raleigh-Cary nc

[tjoles2008]

I just got back a few days ago from my trip to Greensboro. WOW is all I can say!! So much had changed. I JUST HAD to go riding I-40 and I had a blast! I can't wait to go back later this year..This video just makes me want to MOVE right back up there because I miss it so very much!

[wipandco]

Nice ride.

[tjoles2008]

I love this video!! I used to live in Greensboro 10 years ago. I moved away in 2001 and was finally able to go back last year and it's amazing how much it has changed!! I miss it so much!! I'm actually in the process of planning a trip there in April but I'm flying into Charlotte instead of Greensboro.. <3 this video!! It's great!!

[stitch16261]

They need to fix that exit which goes to Myrtle beac?

[CosmoPhotography]

@stitch16261 Which one? What's wrong with it?

[grvk]

What's the title of background song ? Thx :)

[CosmoPhotography]

@grvk The song I used is "Feels So Good" by Armin Van Buuren (feat. Nadia Ali). Just a friendly FYI, I always place the name of the song I used at the end of my videos. Sometimes YouTube places them under the video as well. :-)

[tjoles2008]

@CosmoPhotography I <3 that song!! I'd never heard it before!!

[VaFreeways]

Nice job with this. Looks like a really nice suburban freeway. And nice fall colors too. I wish I had more of an opportunity to film around in Virginia when the leaves were at their peak but didn't have a lot of spare time during the latter half of October/early Nov.

[CosmoPhotography]

@VaFreeways Thank you! Yeah, even though Greensboro is a somewhat cool city, it's pretty much all suburban and auto oriented. The Downtown and Southside neighborhoods are the only saving grace but even they are centered on just one street each, so there isn't like a nice cluster of blocks to walk around. I hear you though! I really wanted to get up and film the Blue Ridge Parkway at the peak, but didn't have the time to do so. :-/

[6V92TA]

Thanks for the ride

[CosmoPhotography]

@6V92TA Anytime!

[Freewayjim]

NCDOT did a horrible job with the first freeways in the 50's and 60's but the upgrades, like the one in this video are first class! Excellent work on the video.

[CosmoPhotography]

@Freewayjim Thanks, Jim! Besides some parts in Iredell, Catawba, and Burke Counties, I-40 in NC has pretty much been all updated since the mid '80's.

[ScrewdUPClickV2]

nice job here . i always want to see more of i-40

[CosmoPhotography]

@ScrewdUPClickV2 Thanks, man! I've got a Part II of this video I'll be releasing later this week and some parts of 40 in Asheville that I plan on filming.

[spamstoper3]

great video !

[CosmoPhotography]

@spamstoper3 Thanks!

[FreewayTitan]

Very nice video.

[CosmoPhotography]

@FreewayTitan Thanks!

[bulldozer950]

Cool...!:)

[IsoscelesKramer]

Wonderfully done, nice mix of bustling freeway with blue skies and fall colors.

[CosmoPhotography]

@IsoscelesKramer Thank you!

[libranonpoint]

I like the song on this video.

[CosmoPhotography]

@libranonpoint Nadia Ali is certainly amazing! :-)

[libranonpoint]

@CosmoPhotography Just added this song to my playlist :)

[Cyrus992]

This is why I am subsribed to Cosmo, to see to supercool sceneries and landscapes of NC

[CosmoPhotography]

@Cyrus992 Thank you! I have to say, NC has definitely grown on me in later years. It is a very clean and beautiful state. I'll be filming in the mountains in late December so stay tuned!

[Cyrus992]

@CosmoPhotography

Californians tell me that its a trashy state filled with racism, bad weather, low culture, nothing to do, lots of poor people, etc... Are they right? How are they wrong? Please tell me..

[CosmoPhotography]

@Cyrus992 Check your inbox when you get a chance

[sunshineunc]

@Cyrus992 Californians are so miss informed about so much! North Carolina has some of the best University in the country.... We are home to Duke University, Wake Forest University, North Carolina School of the Arts, High Point University, Elon University, and not to forget my Alma Mater....University of North Carolina At Chapel Hil!! North Carolina is the secound largest banking center outside of New York. We are getting into movie productions and we just opened our 100th winery.

[gotthkid2]

@sunshineunc but the thing is you NC ple are very judgemental. your close minded people who bash other subultures. like emo people for example. where as in california people dont judge you for how u look. you should add that on to how u nc ple are just to be fair....

[sunshineunc]

@Cyrus992 .....there's so much to do in the state, and just like California we too have mountains and beaches. We have world class Museums. We are very proud to be home to The Research Triangle Park were some of the leading Drug makers and resarchers call home! and as for Racism, You can find that in lots of places.

[sunshineunc]

@Cyrus992 ......I hope that helps!

[gotthkid2]

@Cyrus992 welll it does have ALOT of judgemental and close minded people.............it may not be as racist as SC but nc is defintly un friendly to ple who are DIFFRENT from them. like gothic people for example. they judge ple like that to harshly

[keithjohnson20988]

@gotthkid2 yeah your right anyways let me tell you about Raleigh mayor yeah mayor when i waved at him and he was looking at me he did not wave back but when he seen a white guy wave at him he wanna wave back i hate mayor Charles meeker or Raleigh NC oh im black so NC is racist witch is stupid about different race

[gotthkid2]

@keithjohnson20988 screw them dude thats there own ignorance.......it does not matter what colour you are bro im white and i love blacks

[CosmoPhotography]

@keithjohnson20988 Charles Meeker is a Democrat...I don't think he would be racist towards one of his largest voting blocks. Instead of being so quick to judge others and play the race card, give the guy the benefit of the doubt.

[keithjohnson20988]

@CosmoPhotography tell you one thing im not voting for him in 2012 elections that 16 year old who wanted to be mayor he would be good

[CosmoPhotography]

@gotthkid2 I think I told you already to look at other liberal cities in the state such as Asheville, Charlotte, Raleigh, and Wilmington before casting judgement on the entire state. If you haven't been to those places, then your argument does not have any credibility. I'll be the first to say that some PARTS of NC do not accept others that are not like them, but that exists all over the country. Try getting outside and exploring everything your state has to offer...just a thought.........

[gotthkid2]

@CosmoPhotography what? wilmington is just like anywhere else. it does not really have goth people or anything it just has alot of preppy people and ( normal) people as they call themselfes. youl get stared at and looked up and down there as well. the small chirstians towns are bad about that in NC.

[CosmoPhotography]

@gotthkid2 Maybe instead of stereotyping yourself and others, you should learn to get along and not care what others think. Perhaps your attitude and desire to make a flamboyant statement is what's giving you problems? From your comments, you seem like an unhappy, disgruntled person that doesn't want to do anything about their situation except bitch and moan about it as well as blame others. Your comments that highlight your personal problems do nothing but distract from the focus of this video.

[gotthkid2]

@CosmoPhotography what? it's the same thing al over the state. it has alot of small towns i mean just look on the map of the state of NC. dont you see all those small towns in between? the only bigger cities are greensboror,raliegh and charlote and maybe wilmington.other then that it's alot of smaller towns with the farm road feelings to them. and when you dress diferent then what they have seen they stare are you lke your satan becuz there christians. havent you ever heard of randleman?

[Freewayjim]

@gotthkid2 Are you at this again? Highway video forums are not the place to bitch and moan about such things. Look if you stick your head above the crowd somebody is bound to throw a rock at it. Goth and such is not normal behavior, it is very much the minority but we live in a free country so you can pursue your chosen lifestyle all you want but geez louise don't be so shocked and insulted when "normal" people don't embrace it. You're pushing a rock uphill bro, just keep that in mind.

[gotthkid2]

@Freewayjim nope. somebody replied to me old comment. so i wrote them back. i'm done here.

[ScrewdUPClickV2]

@gotthkid2 something on the lines ''IF YOU CANT SAY SOMETHING NICE, DONT SAY ANYTHING AT ALL.'' <-- END QUOTE DID YA NOTICE.

[MrZulu2065]

@CosmoPhotography Geez, I love how you made this videos in the fall. It's so great.

[disracenboi336]

....Its amazing for a city under 300.000 people it has a full retail Lamborghini, Bentley, Rolls Royce, (2:07 Maserati, Ferrari Aston martin and Porsche dealer. not to mention there was a Ferrari F60(enzo) parked downtown yesterday...

I freaking love gboro so much... It's full of surprises especially for car lovers.

[Bryant5493]

Nice video I-40, Evan. 

[XCtrackRUNnner]

Nice video! are you gonna film the other freeways in the Greensboro area?
