Aged textures against sunny, softness - a serene and warming capture.

Linerberry from Sumner, Christchurch, New Zealand

Lovely shot K. I love the way the light bounces off the wispy grass. There is just something wonderful about old fences...what is it?? They make such great subjects. Great stuff K:-))

@Linerberry: Thanks gorgeous, don't know what it is about old fences but I am so drawn to them, I have a few and I keep thinking "not everyone has a love of fences like you do Kyles". BTW, your image today, I just left a comment, absolute corker! BRILLIANT. I am glad yesterday's image on my page made you laugh so hard... that made my day girlfriend!

Nina from Hamburg, Germany

That country summer feel, ain't nothin' like it, well done sweetie ;) I also adore old fences, maybe it's that sense of togetherness, that you can find in country communities

@Lorraine: Well I am so glad you got the feeling of summer from this image Lorraine, it was taken a few weeks ago on that freezing cold day in the mountains as I drove home and it got slightly warmer... this ray of sunshine struck me by the side of the road and I had to stop to defrost, it looked so warm and inviting. Thanks for your lovely comments, always so very appreciated!

Every fence is different and they all tell tales on those who constructed them and the harshness of the weather conditions they stand in, well done,this image is lovely.

There's something rather reassuring and comforting in this image ... the way things hold together with the individual parts strengthening the whole. A beautiful composition, Kylie, with lovely lighting and DOF strengthening the whole!

Often, the simplest shots are the most rewarding, this one is delightful. The hightlights and DOF are super.

Marion from Nanaimo, BC, Canada

This looks like the picture that should go with the song, "hazy, lazy days of summer". It is so peaceful looking. Can almost smell the grass and hear the bugs and birds. A marvelous shot Kylie.
