This might be a nice subject for a photo, but you would do well to isolate it from the background a little. The intersecting lines from the house seem to interfere with the subject here.

Don't let it out...

Congratulations on entering your first challenge :) The challenge description is as follows:

"The fences we are referring to are actual, physical fences; some are decorative, some are protective, some mark boundaries, some are for erosion control. Think about fences, and give us YOUR perspective :-)"

Here at DPC, out-of-the-box interpretations of the topic and description aren't usually great ideas for challenge photos. There are occasions where they do well, but they must have some extremely strong element to pull them above the median score. When a photo requires any significant thought to 'grasp' in a challenge, it is an absolute requirement that the image provide a high level of 'eye candy' to get the viewer to consider your interpretation a little deeper. The high number of photos in any given challenge here keep people from spending more than a couple seconds looking at a photo. With some eye candy in the image, you may get a little more thought about your idea.

Think of a challenge as a 'game' rather than an art competition. It's a game/contest where your own result is handed to you by your competition.

Good luck :)

Cute but lacking photographic impact.

SWAMP OF THE LIVING DEAD

I think the scene is rather interesting, but the creation of the final image doesn't maintain 'photographic in nature' in my opinion.

I think this scene would be good on its own without the superimposed person... That sorta destroys the credibility of the image.

The editing halo around the bird shows up a little to much to make this photo work.

This scene looks harsh, but I don't care for the composites to create the effect.

Nice photoshop work... No photographic merit here though.
