there once was a fence Photo

Photographer’s Note

There once was a man...who built a fence...because he owned the land...he owned it because a law permitted it...there once was a man who made a law...which made a man own the land..around which he built a fence...

and then there was Nature...unforgiving...all powerful...the nature had its own law...dazzling and fervent...the man's law could not stand up to nature's law...and neither could the Fence.

there once was a man, with a law and his fence...the fence man is no more, the law is no more and the fence remains.

Hello Kamran,

A very original composition with an interesting subject with surely a long and unique history. Just like every such artefact only vaguely reminding us of those who used to tread this earth long, long before us.
I like the note you attached to this frame very much.

Regards, Peter.

Salam Kamran. It's really the remnants of a fence that remain and soon it will join the man. Imagine a world with no fences, no borders, no this is mine. Anyway, exceptional details, the wire making some crazy calligraphy. I love the colours of this desolate place. Regards. Klaudio.

Hi Kamran
I almost thought this was going to me a photo of the dog fence. Anyway it's a great one. I like the details of the intricate barbed wire and how the earth is so dry that you wonder what would be worth fencing in. I love the bright, strong Aussie colours.
Regards
Nikki

Hello Kamran

A very poetic note to accompany a bold composition which is really superb. The colours are great, the blue and white separated by the strip of green. This acts as a canvas by itself for the fence, with excellent sharpness and details. I am interested to know the location of this place. Well done

Regards
Alfred

Hey Kamran,

Here's something out of the ordinary...just an old fence not much to appreciate of its function yet blows me as an image!

It's all about details, the weathering, the rust, bleeding of rustiness, graphic thoughts in imagery. Clever shot!

Cheers!

Hi Kamran,

did I tell how excellent you are with your words? I did?
Oh well...I do not think it will do any harm to tell you so again...
But I would be lying if I said I came here just because of your words... It was a photo that draw my attention. More exactly...this thorny fence that enchances already most dry and unplesant scenery. It is funny...it feels like a fence and dry soil against greenery and perfect blue sky...
Image that can be interpretated on so many levels...however i best love yours!

My compliments,
Jeri
