I have a red-green form of color-blindness -- one of the most common manifestations is "not noticing" this type of thing.
As for lines leading and leading nowhere ... barbed wire commonly symbolizes confinement, wide-open skies (even if over-saturated) symbolize freedom, and these lines both lead you towards and bar you from that freedom. Maybe I should have added the reflective pause to the title, and called it
Lines Leading ... Nowhere |

| I feel that in this photo, the lines ARE the subject, but I think that the idea is to use lines in a photo to direct attention to and enhance a subject that is a different part of the photo. My take, anyway. (4) |

| Don't see the leading lines, but interesting shot. A bit overprocessed, and the color highlights on the wire don't work for me. |

| Ouch...this image has been abused by some manic photoshopper ayh? Harsh color treatment completely ruins the image, and it also needs more creativity in my opinion, for example by way of shallow DOF and another angle |

| I feel that the colour of the of the sky looks a little unnatural. Bold, simple lines in the barbed wire. |

| This doesn't do it for me...the lines don't lead and the background is oversaturated for my taste. |

| Lines need to lead somewhere or you miss the spirit of the challenge. Just my opinion. |

Leading lines or curves generally have two purposes. One is to lead the viewer into the scene. The other is to lead you toward the main subject. It is most effective if they come in from the lower left because that is the natural direction humans visually scan a picture from so are easiest to pick up.
The barbed wire appears to be the main subject itself and does not lead the viewer to any one place in the frame. |

| colors are too vivid - they look fake - and the pic is a bit pixilated, too... if you don't have neatimage think about getting it (there is a free version) |

We all know that this is a "Leading Lines" challeng. By just saying "Nowhere" gives a differant perspective, and makes the picture that much more stronger.
nice comp, nice dof, nice lines, blacks good, whites need work, lighing sillouette nice, nice idea, overall good. |

| i like how the cursive live moves the eye through the pic. seems a bit over saturated. the spirder web? is a bit distracting. wish there was something to counterbalance the brightness of the main cloud |

| Don't care for the grainy harsh edges on the wires. Definately a distraction |
