Trying to find fences in a land of English hedgerows proved somewhat hit and miss. I did find a few, but nothing that quite caught my eye as did this old beech hedgerow. I'll probably get marked down by the DNMC voters who cannot see it as a fence, but if you think about it hedgerows are our natural fencing.

Nicely done, looks a wee bit under exposed 1/3 to 1/2 a stop maybe (imho).

Good landscape shot, but I think to accenuate the natural fence a tighter crop would be better. Having so much of the sky in the photo takes away from the natural fence line.

I love the photo, but at this angle, the fence concept gets lost. I might have gotten 'nature as fence' if the photo was more along the hedgegrow line... A really great photo though. Wonder what a sepia or maybe blue tint woudl do for it??

I found the picture a little too dark. I like the idea of the hedgerow although the detail is lost in the darkness. Perhaps a tighter crop and a lightening of the the hedgerow would have helped.

More contrast I think is needed so the hedgerows are more prominent.
