Hi Helen,
This is SUBTLE, great idea, well done.
Here in NZ we only use barbed wire for the top strand.
I have never seen it used as a brace, seems a bit dangerous to me.
Cheers,
Pete.

Hello Helen,

The first thing that hit me with your photograph was the excellent composition - great off-centre post with the wooden rail tempting our eyes into the rest of the shot. Then the vibrant colours of the grasses and the flowers are superb. Excellent light.

Kind regards,
Bev :-)

Of course, barbed wire is very twisted... and it hurts too.
Nice country scene Helen, and the fence post and frncing wires stand out well.
And it's in Germany too. Good find while on holiday - see the mind is always searching for photo opportunities.

Excellent Helen. Delightful foreground colours with fine detail. Well composed and just enough sharpness. Now I have done a bit of fencing but I have never (or would want to)used barbed wire on strainers. TFS,
David

It's lovely as a composition "an sich" Helen and indeed fitting for theme at the same time.

You had the most lovely weather chosen for this weekend, because now it is absolutely horrible (and tomorrow is Ad's birthday --well raincoats on then).

LOL -- so while I was exploring the UK, you were exp0loring my motherland !!
Love the Pov, Helen and the fence post is the perfect framing device.
The one and only thing *I* might have done differently would have been to increase the blue saturation to bring out the sky
Great job

A well seen view for the theme. Great sharp capture with a superb POV and DOF. The yellow flowers (buttercups?) are great . A fine contribution to the theme!

Great composition Helen, having in the foreground the wodden and barbed wire fence. I like the way the lines intersect giving a nice "twist" to the image! :) I also like the sharpness and colors.
Thank you for the theme, once again!
Best regards,
Diana
