Brother Fence, Sister Stick

Comment by gjumi:
As far as I can see in my computer, a great processing tribute.
As for the story, I think this is an interesting study/play with form, line, shape and levels of gray, but I don´t read more than that. I think the title is supposed to come from those fairy-tales of Brother Sun and Sister Moon (or, is it the other way?), but I can´t link it to this photo.

The fence looks masculine, as if with arms opened and ready to protect a feminine, bending, vulnerable stick, but I feel that´s too much of a mind-stretching...

A little to dark for me.

you really have processed this perfectly...the yellows are harsh, and that bridge that is drawing me in almost gives me a bit nauseous feeling...
all that and Larus doesn't like it...what could be better?

I didn't vote on this challenge or I would have given this a 4 just to make sure I beat you...of course this would have been entirely dependent on my knowing this was your shot...sorry no checkmark there...and my knowing you gave me a five...

but really I like the loneliness of this shot..the tones enhance it nicely...hopefully you can carry on after having e301 remark on the "touch of interest" element...and you know he really is the king of having that one little thing that takes the shot to the next level....

Comment by UNCLEBRO:
an interesting idea.
but perhaps a little too dark to show the actual fence off very well.

Comment by Melethia:
An interesting thing - I never stopped to figure there were multiple images. I mean it kinda seems like there must be, but it really hangs together so well that the mind doesn't question whether or not it logically CAN fit together, simply because it DOES fit together. Scary that you scored so high and didn't simply create a "DPC friendly" image... wonder what THAT says? And there's no explaining my sudden urge to type whole words in CAPS. I think it has to do with my aversion to the folks that alTERnatE case in their titles. Drives me nuts.

I hardly know what to say. I love this composition, but don't know why. Everything about it pleases my eye. Someone said it is busy. I think it is infinitely interesting. I gave it a 10.

Comment by undieyatch:
9 - enjoyable montage. Muted/subdued/filtered colour intensity has an appropriate quality and somehow complements this gravel pit. Pasted placard bolted on air, resting on a thin rod, provides identification and a quick entry for my eye to begin exploring. In the end, the sign is awkward. I want a way to have an option to remove it, or make it smaller, and see these texture/composition relationships without such a loud warning.
