More than the pattern itself i think it's the  colors that make this photo to stand out.

 

Keep on shooting Tony.

How something so simple can look so elegant is almost beyond me, but that's why I visit your photos'. I love the narrow field of focus Tony, and the colors ain't half bad themselves. Great work.

Best, Holger

Holger and Maurizio - Thanks.  Visiting the same place forces me to look for something else but I suspect that only a few will appreciate this one. I am actually surprised that 27 folks were curious enough to take a peak since there is no colorful sky, water or mountain.

Mike - I knew it would be noticed sooner or later.  So far I am pleased with it and using 2 FX lens and 2 DX lens that I used on my D300. There is lots to learn and I may not get the same out of it (for now) as my D300 which I knew intimately. I am sure that over time, it will pay off.  Over the last couple of days I have been shooting lots of trivial stuff and playing with lots of different settings. Photoshop needs to be updated and I have a new version of lightroom which is missing some stuff I liked in my old version. Thank goodness nothing has changed re spotting good light and composition guidelines. I almost hate upgrading (*_*) - almost is the key word.

Love the perspective and dof here, and the light catches the links just right!  

Congrats on your new camera! I'm sure you will get great pleasure from it.  The file sizes might take a while to get used to, but it does have benefits when it comes to cropping. 

I know just what you mean about "upgrading" the expense doesn't stop with the camera there is the software, sometimes spare batteries are a different type, cable release different socket etc.  But at least the lenses with Nikon are pretty much interchangeable with most models. 

 

Best Regards

Beautiful loops of light captivate the eye; black on green with swirls of orange. Fabulous composition! Then the brain says, my god its fencing wire! and that's the fantastic reveal/twist to the photo that makes it great. 9/10.   

I was thinking if the photo is better or worse off if  photoshopped  out the white highlight wisps of spider web just right of centre of frame, was it a distraction or did it bring the eye to the area of interest. In the end I think the photo is better for it.

Marco -  I also like the composition and colors.

 

L. Hejtman  - thanks - I appreciate your visit.

 

Alf - I have a very old nikkor 24mm 2.8 which is a full frame lens from the old film days. I dusted it off and tried it on the D810. It works very well except the extreme corners which only gets acceptable at f11. I could still use it knowing it's strengths, weaknesses and my ability to crop with the D810.  I will probably acquire a very solid wide-angle - probably a prime since I use this sort of lens in about 80% of my photography.

 

David - I am lost for words also and quite surprised to see the current number of views this has received. I have to come over and visit your stimulating nudes.

 

Franz - I am pleased you liked the idea and composition - I was desperate to find something new.

 

Rick - Simple indeed. A photographer here on photo.net told me that he had taken a course with a professional photographer and simplification was a big theme.

 

Joscelyn - IMHO, I think the light and the circular patterns are key ingredients. Thanks for stopping by.

 

Glen: Many thanks for your visit. "My God, its fencing wire". That made me laugh especially since there was no intention in being a snake-oil photographer when this idea hit me. For what it is worth, I intentionally chose that white spider web as my focus point. I wondered if I should clone out the 2nd 'white spot' to the left since it was so small, less discernible and more likely to be perceived as an irritating speck of dust.     

 

All the very best and thank you to everyone who visited this image.
