Nice take Jen, and good DoF. The front is sharp and smooth blur at the back. :)

Such a simple scene, made really effective by subtle DOF and your usual stunning colours. Nicely done Jen.

The TLC might make it look newer, but I think the old fence has its charms :)

9 May 2007 1:36pm

@Celialee: Yes it does...but on the leaning side is a very steep embankment : 0

Craiger from Vacaville, California, United States

Kairospix from Singapore

this is a very good shot with good control of DOF and also the use of perspective!

well composed and good post-processing!

but now the question... hmm... who caused the fence to collapse.. was the the horse, cow, sheep or... man?!??! haha :)

9 May 2007 2:43pm

@Kairospix: Thank you very much!!

My guess is either age and slope erosion or kids...just a guess

Yvon from Meerkerk, Netherlands

The fence looks great as it is, but without 'help' it will fall down sooner or later. Great DOF and colours. Very peaceful shot.

@Yvon: Thanks!

amy from Rocky Mountain House, Canada

Beautiful tones and perspective. The image has a nostalgic/warm feel. ;-)

Ken McCoy from Orlando-Daytona Beach, FL, United States

Nice shot! Is there some color enhancement here as well?

9 May 2007 9:29pm

@Ken McCoy: I did one layer of ummm???? luminosity and played around with the contrast and color saturation. Sorry I can't be more specific...I play around in ps until I find what I like, and sometimes I don't remember exactly what I did because I went back and forth so much : 0
Thanks for the visit Ken!!

Interesting and pleasing compostion with clever use of shallow DoF.

Were the sturated colours in this original idyllic scene?

Nick Passantino from Bronx, United States

Great composition.. I think that fence is more interesting to look at the way it is.

10 May 2007 4:25am

@Nick Passantino: I think so too, but unfortunately it's not safe if it falls : 0

Zing from Hamilton, New Zealand

Nice DOF, composition and colours.

Rob from Velveetaville, United States

I love the old gray wood in the fence. It is older and a little weak but it still is standing after all these years. Nice composition and use of the "near/far" aspect.

Thanks for visiting my site and your kind words too.

Cheers,

Rob
