 This tree has swallowed up the fence. Probably needs more contrast to be a good b/w, but the subject is fascinating to me so I went ahead and subitted it. Here is the raw file to give you an idea of the size of the tree and where the fence is.

from the looks of it he swallowed it some time ago. ain't it strange, a tree with a piercing, very trendy ;-)

the wire is a bit blown, and I think this one could do with a smaller apperture.

Great textures in the tree. Like how composed this shot to where the barbwire is leading your eyes.

Interesting that the tree is growing around the wire. The textures are great! I like the way you have presented this shot.

I'm not a fan of OOF foregrounds. I love the idea of the tree growing around the barb wire, and like the bark texture.

Contrast looks good on my screen, might work better with all of the fence line in focus.

Double leading lines. :) Fence to tree. Treebark to ???

I like the way you finished composing this with the angle of the fencing wire. Feels like something more should be in focus, just a little, along the wire? Hmmm.

Cool idea.

Very nicely done.

Perhaps focusing better on where the wire enters the tree would further emphasize this key part of the image.
