    Re: Fence

    Yup, its there now and glad to see it.
    I like how the diagonal leads my eye into the mist and imagination of what lies there.
    The dof looks quite shallow and you may have had to use a wide aperture but I think you could have made the focal point further into the shot or if you used a tripod then you may have wanted to use a smaller aperture.
    Good image at any rate.
    Keep Shooting!

    Re: Fence

    Love it. Excellent IMO, but I'm a fence loving photographer.

    I think that you might want to crop out the right 1/4 of the photo. The last column there is more distracting that additive, and the middle and left side is an excellent tone that blends in with the foggy background whereas the darkish column is a little too contrasty and soft. Not sure it will work, but try it and see.

    Re: Fence

    Welcome to the forum, Troy.
    I like the mood and atmoshere in the image. I like the composition as well. good tones in your b&w. I agree about croppin some of the right side just to eliminate the out of focus post.
    What I wished for in this composition to improve would be a slightly lower vantage point so that the fence posts break above the horizon and into the sky some. This would add some deeper dimension to the scene.
    Good image, enjoyed viewing it.
