About the Image(s)

There’s not much to say about this picture. I was on a country road and noticed the curve in the fence and its shadows and decided to take a few pictures. Post processing was mainly some tonal adjustments in ACR and later, during the B&W conversion, in Nik Silver Efex Pro. I also removed a few leaves and a small cloud from the top/left area. Noise reduction and sharpening were done in Topaz DeNoise AI.

Taken with the Nikon D300, set to ISO 200, 1/100 sec, f11, EV +0.33.

I do love good leading lines, Arik and I really like the lines in this image. It's very satisfying all around, I have no suggestions.   Posted: 02/04/2025 22:44:51

I'm drawn to fence shadows too, they make natural and easy leading lines. Here, the curve is a bonus. I like the touch of sepia. The nice strong mid tone contrast here helps me see that my own image needs more. Very nice.   Posted: 02/04/2025 23:54:30

Arik, I can see why you were attracted to this scene. The light is good, and the sweeping curve in the fence and shadows is very fetching. Certainly eye candy.   Posted: 02/05/2025 01:11:24

Hi Arik,
Great tonality and balanced composition. Elegantly post-processed.   Posted: 02/05/2025 12:36:28
