barbed-wire fence ~ 1
Posted by Dulcie (Danville, CA, United States) on 14 June 2009 in Landscape & Rural and Portfolio.
Near home, Crow Canyon Road winds its way through farms and rolling foothills ... it is rich with material for photographs.
Your critique of my photos is most appreciated. . . . .

oh! i do LOVE this one!!!!! Remarkable contrast between the restricting barbed wire and the determination of life to grow right through it nonetheless. Oh my... this is another beauty to be framed.

@Anna.C: Thank you for the feed back. I'd like to see your "fence" pictures, too. There are some universal subjects that are just too good to pass up, aren't there?!!

Nice idea, softness against barbed-wired. A very lovely and delicate light.

Hi Dulcie, that's really funny... we both took a photo with a rusty fence! I like your picture very much... a wonderful composition and lovely details, beautifully captured :)

@Nina: First the rusty fence..then the Cacti plants! Is it telepathy???

They aren't deterred in growing thru the barbed wire. They softened the wire's appearance

La nature aux prises du barbelé déchirant .... un magnifique contraste très symbolique !

It's not Crow Canyon Road. It's your artist's eye that makes these fantastic pictures. I love the way the light falls on the ring in the center of the barbed wire. And of course, the contrast between the delicate light of the natural world and the harsh iron darkness of man's (sic). Great!!!
