Amazing how a piece of trash can be used to make a great Photograph, like the tree or object out of focus in the background repeating the shape of the trash in the foreground. Bobbed wire makes for a good stitching.

Nice print! The photograph conveys a kind of dull and "empty" mood that I like and I think the tones and the toning emphasize that mood (somehow) . Great work!

I've failed many times to do right by bobbed (barbed) wire. I'll remember this photo.

Were it me, I'd crop out that top non-barbed line.

Outstanding in every respect. Love the use of DOF, vignetting, composition and toning. Well done.

Excellent shot and great composition.
I would, if I had the eye to pick this scene as I drive by at 70 miles per hour, tried also to use a wide angle to get the distant background in focus.
That lonely tree is tempting!
Keep up the good work.

@mike c @henpe @petrk @jtk @Eric Rose @Gaston 012 @dasBlute @mfohl @Andrew O'Neill Thanks for all the great comments. I photographed it several different ways with different cameras including 4x5, this is the best representation of what I wanted (I think), bit of a rough draft. Was meant to be a still life of sorts, a sculpture whipped up by the wind a tree a mirage in the distance. A longer exposure would be more blur and a different look, still would work, but not what I was after this time. Spent a couple of days in the Tenterfield region in NNSW a rural area suffering from drought and dwindling population.
