Forgotten Ways 2

Thanx

Nice shot Anne, but that power line disrupts the image for me. I like the colors and back lighting.

Did you consider cloning out the wire? I find it very distracting but like the composition.

I considered the lines and the fact is it actually means more , to me, that you see how the contrast between the old machinery being taken over by the new and how beauty is made ugly by progression. Although I know you critiques are valid, I truly left it for that reason. Not everyone will like it, and I knew that going in. I should have placed it in another genre. That's ok . Live and learn. thanx , though.

I agree with Anne. In my opinion if the wire goes, it's just another sunset picture. At least this way there's something more to think about.

 

There are utility wires on the bottom of the image also. Maybe the two are commected. Maybe it's a service drop from the main line. Maybe it leads to the old house. At any rate, I'm for saving them .
