Critique Welcomed Broken Fences

[Chris Dodkin]

X-Pro1 and 18mm Lens - f/8

I spotted this scene as I drove to pick up the grandkids on the weekend - so went back today when the light was right to take a few shots.

looks like a horrible drive, the traffic must be horrendous. beautiful colors.

Well done Chris. How many times do we all ride...walk...run...by that picture and never make it back? Nice effort and nice shot.

 

[Dan Cattermole]

I really like this. such a beautiful picture!

 

[Pete Askew]

Love the blocks of colour here Chris (and the yellow-brick road!). Fabulous proportions and layers too. And I see you have found the Hasselblad setting on the Fuji!

 

[Julian de'Courcy]

Very nice image Chris. Take away the fence and you have a very ordinary image, well spotted.

 

[Chris Dodkin]

Thanks everyone - I'm sure swmbp thinks I'm nuts as I spot these scenes whilst driving

Pete - the X-Pro shot was indeed a test run for the Blad - more of that later

Beth - it was hell I tell you, bumper to bumper

SWMBP? Passivised?! Do I take it the one a month is beginning to be noticed?

 

[Dave Moss]

Great shot Chris

I must admit there is a mill I want to go back and photograph and its not far just a bit awkward to park near!

Shhhhhhhhh, there are no parcels from EBAY...

 

[Pete Askew]

Parcels?! Who mentioned parcels? And what's eBay?
