Gate Post

January Word List - Gate
Unfortunately there seems to be a dirth of carnations in my area. There wasn't even any in the bunches of flowers at the supermarket!

[Ruth]

wonderful gate post. I love the texture of the wood

[Kate Goring]

Really interesting subject. The barbed wire looks like it would practically bite! Nice job.

[joey d.Muli]

i've soooo many wire/fence shots too---they're great photo concept---This is a great shot(would love it in B&W..(just suggesting):)

[Sally Ings]

@abhijit @jodimuli Hadn't even thought about it! Will give it a bash and see how it looks. I know barbed wire on its own works really well in b&w.

[Brian Baptie]

Very rustic!!

[Ann H. LeFevre]

I see it as a b/w too- will have to check out your alternate shot. Very nice.

[Chris]

Lovely - I thought I liked the black and white better but now I am not so sure anymore :-).

[Leana Niemand]

Great shot, love all the detail and texture! Nice one Sally.

[Kimberly Balychev]

Very awesome looking wooden post! Love the soft colors! B&W is outstanding as well!:)

[Anatoly]

Well done, Sally! I agree with the previous comments, may be in B&W it will look more accentuated. Nice composition, btw!

[AutomaticSlim]

Great textures: close crop, b&w and a vignette would certainly be something I'd try, but I was also thinking that it's nice to see one of these in colour for a change. ;-)

[Pam]

I quite like it in color. It shows the rust. I love these kinds of shots. Love it!

[Amy Spada]

I like what you focused on and the shallow DOF that brings it all out.

[Therese]

Really cool!!! I like this shot!

I love wood when it gets gray and weathered like that, and combined with the aged barbed wire, it's perfect.
