I didn't see this photo when I voted. I would have given it a 10! Great detail, and it puts the viewer right there.

Nice.

Just lovely.

It may not be a split cedar fence but I still love it
Great shot

Quite a few fence shots this week but in my opinion this is the best, however I find the white "thing" (not sure what it is) on the centre beam slightly distracting.

Great journalistic shot. Composition leads the eye. Grass spilling over the fence poles says country. I would have liked to see this one in color.

Wow, this is just awesome. Black and white was the perfect choice, and the composition is spectacular. Focus and DOF are also both A+. Very good work.

Great texture. nice perspective.

You've captured a beautiful photo here! Certainly gives the "country" feel. Good luck!

wow- striking image that completely draws the eye as intended towards the focal white detail. Excellent work - 9

Great use of black and white. Good detail and light. Very nice angles and cropping. Good contrast. I like this photo a lot. The only thing I don't really care for is the border. A border is used to make a shot look better. This shot really really doesn't need it.

Classic use of line and tone. Good work.
06/27/2003 01:01:50 PM
Great angle and focus from front to back . One of my favs this week. 10
06/27/2003 08:40:21 AM
Great lines, tones, curves, textures, focus. An excellent image.
06/26/2003 08:21:27 PM
Great idea to shoot this from the height of the middle horizontal post!
06/26/2003 05:04:58 PM
the gray tones work very well . and i also like the border
06/26/2003 04:58:07 PM
Composition: Spot on for me
Technical: Nice lighting and contrast
Meets challenge: Yes
Overall impression: Excellent quality. I wouldn't be surprised with a top 10.
06/26/2003 01:14:37 PM
love the perspective.
06/26/2003 02:08:10 AM
Another great B&W with stunning tones and contrast. 8.
06/25/2003 10:46:35 PM
GREAT perspective! wow. Also good job capturing the texture of the wood of the fence/grasses. I think b/w is good here because colors might start to get more confusing. Good DOF, good everything. The first 10 I've given so far and I'm more than half done rating photos.
06/25/2003 04:32:50 PM
Beautiful textures and great light. - 6
06/25/2003 09:31:13 AM
Good idea, you sure did a good job of it too. I like the detail particularly and the B&W really works - 9.
06/25/2003 07:56:15 AM
I love this shot Would like to have seen it in color
06/25/2003 02:34:52 AM
VERY NICE. One of my favorites. I like the angle and the lighting and focus are perfect. Nice choice for the challenge.
06/25/2003 12:24:13 AM
Great perspective, good detail/focus/sharpness of image, the b&w works for me...
