Just a quiet morning scene out in the country earlier this week. No snow-covered branches this winter, but plenty of moody bare branches in dormant pastures.
I definitely thought about it. I was going back and forth on whether it was worth the extra effort to get rid of it--sometimes the results are underwhelming. But if this image should be favored for the calendar and others felt it was worth it, I would definitely be willing to submit a "B" version without the fence so a final decision could be made on it. :-)
Not cloning, but removing the fence was the first thing I thought about. Photoshop's Remove tool works like magic in way less time than trying to clone it out. Either way, though, it's a great image, made better without the fence, IMO.
