Awesome, beautiful shot...

Beautiful clouds and sky. The barbed wire would be better if the front piece was in focus I think.

Well, maybe I woldn't call it a macro. What about a take focused the other way around? I mean focus on the wire in front an let the background OOF. Nice and inspiring pic anyway. Maybe you can send it to Amnesty International.

I like the range of scale in this shot.

lovely picture but hard to consider it a macro

very hard to see this as a macro shot. Good picture though.

Nice scenic view and beautiful colors. Barbed wire in the foreground is distractingly out of focus.

Nice capture but a little to birght on the left hand side.

Good color - good focus on the top line of barbed wire. Without the title, I might not have known your intent. I like the way you triangulated the lines of the fence with the horizon.

The bottom piece of wire looks soo similar in colour to the rocks so gets lost. The top part of the photo, above the horizon, is great though.

Very beautiful picture, but is it a macro?

More of a skyview then macro

I saw this in the thumbnail, and thought it was a beautiful photo. I don't however think that your main subject would be considered 'extreme close up'. In a way, you prove my point for me, but getting 'extremely close up' to the barbed wire, but it's not in focus. So I would just like to see the focus reversed. Focus on the front wire, not the back. That would change it for me. Still a stunning photo. Love the colors and the background is beautiful. Horizon is horizontal. (one of my pet peeves.) Overall very impressive. ~Heather~
