I did play with the color of the road to match the real road surface and got some small success quickly. But the key problem are the sharp bends at the edge of the road. I will have to learn more about Photoshop to solve that problem. I need to change the perspective of the photo (distort it) to have straight lines continuing from the real to the backdrop roads.
The other topic is to learn how to erase objects and replace it's space with the surrounding texture. That is required to get rid of utility poles etc.
