Hi Sheila,

I remember your "Winding Fence" photo, and I wasn't at all surprised that this photo caught my eye as I scanned through the photo critiques forum.  The color of the sky was what probably grabbed my attention, but I think that I'm drawn to peaceful farm scenes.  And you do those so well!  The three, parallel elements (barbed wire fence, grass strip, road) are a graceful and visually interesting entrance into your photo.

Out of curiosity, did you keep your Xti? If so, do you still use it occasionally?

Regards, Richard

Thanks for your kind words and helpful analysis Richard. I like shooting rural Kentucky scenes, and I especially like using fences to lead the eye. I recently sold my old camera to a friend in the Sunny Sixteen Camera Club (to which I belong). Her camera quit on her while she was on a mission trip in Japan. She was happy to get a working camera, and I was happy to get some money to help pay for a trip to Acadia NP this fall!
