logo design (kopano travel)

Jan 1-7(week one)

This is part of my freelance work my first job out of college. It's a logo I designed for a traveling/tourism company
called "Kopano travel".
Working with the idea/concept of travelling I used a stylised road(the line leading to the name). The colors the client picked out not too sure if I agree with them really(but the client is always right!)right?. I would have liked to work more with earthy colour or just simple shades of brown, speaking of which how far do we push the whole idea of the client 'always being right?'
I did however enjoy designing this logo because I worked with gradient and drop shadows, something I hadn't
tried out in any of my designs before.
Maybe because gradient is sort of frowned upon in Design Center, none the less it's always great to try something new and discover that it actually works or does it? I'd like to hear your views and comments on this one.
