The Fence

Jack, I think You have your most efective Photos made with this camera :)  the angles You get are really good.

regards,

this is beautiful in all sorts of ways Jack, beautiful and strange as the world can be. The softness of tone fits perfectly and layers just right the surreal atmosphere of the frame --- it wouldn't work as well any other way... Your signature cones removed from their working class normal, appear as if refined and elegant presences in art tableau, which is precisely where they stand!

The most fascinating thing in this photo, to me, is the shrouded building behind the trees.  It's a beautiful thing, the building appearing as a bas-relief, with the dark trees in front of it.  Or maybe the buildings are almost lost in dense fog.  It plays with perception and with depth.  The bit of exposed building on the right adds some reality, which I'm not sure is a plus or a minus here.  By adding the figure on the road, the scene becomes a stage with backdrops, an artificial reality in which our actor appears.  Is it real, or just theater?

Jack,   Impressive composition and full mark for technical abilities.  Wonderful work as usual!  My best,

I like the juxtaposition of only a few elements in this strong geometric composition, the picture has a surreal feel so the movement of the biker having just entered this world is somewhat reassuring here.

the arrangement of the two cones + two (parts of) trees, separated by the wall (which is in turn echoed by the white cover behind the trees) draws my eyes into this photo. The moving cyclist and the square of "reality" (cf. Mark's comment) are welcome counterparts to the static trees and cones (so, I see the square in the upper right corner rather as a plus). Though, I can imagine, the photo would also work without these two elements - it just would be a very different photo.
