Taken yesterday on a photo trip to Sofala. E510, 12-60mm zoom @ 29mm, f/22, 400ASA, 1/60s.

Raw processed with 40% recovery, minor sharpening and minor curves. Curves (lightening) and selective colour (all minor), vignetting, border and save for the web in PS CS4.

I wasn't particularly hunting fences for the comp, but I reckon it'll do.:)

Hi All;
I'm not much of a photographer but I thought this one was kind of interesting..

(Taken in 2002 when I was in Upper Canada).

Cheers
PS: I'm not quite sure of the rules ..please excuse me if I've broken any .. I'm just a novice.

This one is from the archive.... taken way back in 1998 with one of the first Olympus "SLR" digital cams (no interchangeable lens though!!!). This was full resolution for the cam (1280x1024)

It has been one of my favourites for a very long time, so good opportunity to give it an airing.

No manipulation whatsoever.

This shot is not technically a fence but part of an old farm lean to, but it would have been a great fence.

Located on the mother inlaw's old farm block in the Wimera.

A nice sunset on a stormy evening made for a glow all along this chain link fence.

November 10 - Canon G9 (Before it smoked and burned).

Cropped jpeg drive-by. Belize, Central America.

Street vendor. Making the most of a bad situation - post Hurricane.

I liked the dynamics of this photo. Dispair/fatigue, an enduring spirit and the hapless sleeping dog. These people were doing it tough.

I made no attempt to improve on this, other than a little wavelet sharpen. It was that bleak.

Hi All,

Here's my entry this month taken at Hill End N.S.W, 7th November 2010.

Not so much a fence as a random collection of timber and sticks that appears to mark a boundary.


Best,

Took a walk to the City Botanical Gardens today and had a good session with the fences and gates.

The plaque on the gate said "Queens Park 1865". I don't know if the fence is original, but I think the tree might be :). This one came top of my short list. The theme is fences and gates, and at one time this might have been an operational gate here.

Great topic,

I don't have anything much to submit other than this shot of a
scenic drive in the Flinders Ranges from October this year.
This is a stock fence near Moralana, just off the Parachilna road.
Lots of green up there this year. Not long after this, pastoralists were
having difficulty with locust numbers.

Very difficult to get down below 200k!

Nothing will pass.....
from Bovine to Bug.....
Fence or Gate.....
Hold or Held.......
Pass or will Pass....

[Esseth]

A fence that you might not want to get caught passing.

Morning mist at Sunrise along the fencline at QLD Astrofest.

Last day of the month but still in time.

B&W photography taken with an old film camera and mounted on thick board, I keep it on the wall. My first venture into the old fashioned film world (and likely the last). I walked around my street and found different fences, I utilised several elements within the fences that looked like letters to compose the word.
See what you can read.

Well for this month's photo comp.

I have been planning in my mind all month,little projects.

But the light has been bad and not much time.

Took this on way home from work late this afternoon as thunder rumbled overhead,Its a stone fenced cemetery in

remote bushland,it has a blacksmith made gate,the place is very old

Circa 1850's

Taken with 450D and 10-22 at 22mm 1/30 iso 400 f8 hand held,with 1/16 flash.

Hi all

Late day I know. :ashamed:

Here is an image I took so long ago I can't remember if it was film or digital.
It's a photo of the original with a few tweaks.

It was taken up at Hazeldean.

I hope you like it.
