I love the warping of the fence...what kind of lens did you use?

Jorge,
Excellent composition and POV. The fence leads the eye through the photo nicely. The fog creates a nice morning mood for this shot. The lighting and colors are great with nice sharpness and detail.

Hi Jorge,
What a great perspective you found here. The view along the fence is wonderful, also created by the fog of course who is making it in to a great atmospheric image. Light on the trees and on the graas is excellent, hard, so great contrast against that softer view in the far background.
Wonder why you used only 5.6, this is an image that shouts for f22. Only reason i can think of is that you had no tripod with you.
Nevertheless, the view is wonderful.
Regards, Henk

Hi Jorge,

Yes, the perspective is great but I do have to agree with Henk when it comes to the aperture of this one! f/22 would perhaps have given too much softness on the edges, but f/14 would have done wonders for the Depth of Focus. Still a very nice perspective, but next time just a little higher with your ISO and then f/14. To my humble opinion ;-).

Greetings!

Hi Jorge
Just superb. Just beautiful.
What an atmosphere. You perfectly illustrate the atmosphere in an equestrian school. At least the idea I have of it.
I like very much the work you have done.
Thanks a lot for sharing.

Hello Jorge,
What a beautiful composition! The DOF is great, and the mist creates a tranquil mood. I like the way the fence slopes gently downward and disappears into the fog in the distance. Beautiful soft colors, too.

•  
• kwazireal (173)

Jorge...Excellent!

Lighting, color rendering, exposure...perfect.

I must disagree with other critiques that suggested increasing the DOF by closing down the aperture; that suggestion would only detract from this result. Why, because too much in-focus would destroy the tremendous sense of distance, of depth in this image...created primarily by the "fade" of the fenceline. Look down the fence, from where it is backlit in the foreground all the way to where it bends back into the sunlight; the image would simply not work nearly as well if the front-lit side of the fence was in sharp focus.

Another especially beautiful part of this image is the upper quarter, where the focal depth is really driven home so effectively by the definitive fade from the near branches to those farther away...on out into the foggy morning.

Getting up early, getting out early with your camera really pays off!

Hi Jorge,

Nice composition here. Sinuosity of the fence is particularly very nice. It leads our eyes trough the view. Perhaps depth of field would be more important to give more sharpness on the foreground. Dynamic would be more important also but here you can't do anything. Thanks for sharing. Cordially,

Christophe

Hi Jorge, A brilliantly composed photo, the line of the fence & trees leading the eye into the depths of the shot, the light is a little mixed, however your POV is excellent & altogether, you have managed the photo well under what look difficult circumstances, kind regards Wilson.

A very nicely framed image Jorge...I almost said 'sculpted' because of the sensual nature of this image - not only the shapes and textures but even this air/atmosphere is breathable from your image - I easily get the sense of being there and experiencing this.

cannot believe I missed this shot when it was posted! love the perspective here and how the fence leads the eye into the scene, I particularly like the delicate patters on the fence, I find that fits the overall mood of the shot very well. the fog certainly adds that "little something" and creates a very nice dream-like feeling. others have already commented on the f-stop, so I'm not going to repeat it. other that that - very, VERY well seen and presented.
best,
Kristine

Hello Jorge,

What a spectacular shot from last month. I had not seen it before, but I am very happy to find it now (it came up in the random order in which you present your gallery). It resembles a dramatic stage setting.

Warm regards for the New Year,

there's nothing quite like early morning fog. the leading lines in this photo take you to a dark and intriguing place in the distance. The tree's and grass also give a lively atmosphere to the photo.
