The trees overpower the fence. Also, I think of a fence as a big metal structure so this fence does not do it for me. The shot could also use some better lighting. The bush on the left looks too out of place. Sorry but I can't go higher than a ten!

Edit: This should win easy. There is one other that may beat it. Not because of photo quality but because of a decent photo but a different take on the challenge.

Definitely looks like an enchanted forest. Good use of light areas to draw viewers' attention to the path and the trees.

Beautiful! The light and shadows are great.
  Photographer found comment helpful.

It is a beautiful shot, but is it too overprocessed? it doesn't look real- and maybe its not. looks like you shot terrain from a model train set- or something. i'd really like to know what u did to the pic, if anything. please feel free to let me know after the challenge is over, if you would like.
