Spotlights

Another entry in my accidental fence series (three in a row!). I took this photo of a fence in the evening as the setting sun shone through its basket weave style horizontal slats. I played with the contrasts in editing and liked the extreme effect of black and white. It looks to me as though each fence finial is being illuminated by a spotlight.

Thank you all very much for stopping by to view my album and taking the time to leave a comment. I read each one eagerly and appreciate them all. I am very thankful to have found the 365 community. Your projects inspire and motivate me everyday. It's wonderful to share this journey with you!

Happy 100th photo to all those who started their project on January 1!
Happy 100th to you! I love this shot -- I am drawn to fences, love the dark contrasts, and the perspective.

Before I read your description I thought it was some fancy fence in a big city somewhere (for some reason I thought "London"), each post illuminated individually, as you say. I'm very impressed with your vision in being able to take what is presumably a "normal" looking fence and bring it to this.
