Madly spotting some scans, as we speak!

Okay, the first one. It is new, it is on TMY and I used my OM-2n with the neat little 35-70 Zuiko.
"Swoop 1"

I gotta say, Matt, the light is hitting that fence in a spectacular way. Good job reigning it in.

And a couple more - same details.
"No Dogs or People":

plus a bit of detail from that last one to help make it understandable:


"Cable" - to make it clear that fences can be made of just about anything


I've got at least one more to come (I hope).

And finally, the last one. Same details.
"Shadows and Fences"



All the ones I've uploaded today were taken on the same day - January 10, 2023 - on the same walk from my home, on the same roll of film. I was on a MSA mission!

Ok, folks. So there were a lot of excellent photos to choose from. So it wasn't easy. I really liked the submissions by @markjwyatt and @Mick Fagan and @MattKing. I liked @Ivo Stunga's photo a lot. I think @KitosLAB takes the award for most significant, historically and culturally. I liked the tonality of @Roger Thoms and @GregY 's contributions.

I think, however, I'm going to give it to @logan2z for a consistency of vision, especially exhibited by all the cars behind fences in many of his contributions. And there's just something about that photo of the billboard towering above that fenced in van (the barbed wire makes it hard for the van to escape) that I personally like.

So, there you go! Enjoy the rest of winter.

Wow, thanks @Don Heisz. I didn't expect that, but I'm truly honored!

I guess it's my turn to pick the MSA theme for Feb. I'll post a new thread ASAP.

Lol, shot this for this MSA, but didn’t finish the roll in time.
