Very simple and very effective. I have a similar shot, but it used a strange pinwheeling metal wall emplacement to keep people out of a backyard (and probably pigeons off the wall). You've got some problems with the clouds -- those on the right are blown out while those on the left are gray and kind of murky. I think I would have tried to keep more texture in the ones on the right. I'd suggest (even tho I like the color) seeing what this one looks like in B&W as well. Make it a little more stark. Good work.
good image. well shot. clean. i took an image similar to this : ) .. no real suggestions for improvement. i think this could make a poster for amnesty international : ) .. mag 99.
very nice shot.. simplicity always works for me. The single strand of barbed wire silhouetted against the sky offers a nice contrast, not only in the image, but a contrast between freedom and captivity :) = 8 - jmsetzler
I really like this shot. It is very simple and the dark twisted barb wire against the beautiful sky backdrop is an excellent contrast and gives the picture an ominous feel.
At first, I thought the wire needed to be further up the picture, but then I decided that it may be more effective where it is because the viewer has a sense of freedom by the wide open blue sky, then it abruptly ends with the single strand of barbed wire. (Just a note: if a horse wants to be out of "captivity" a strand of barbed wire won't stop him. :-)) I like the contrast provided. karmat
Overall, I like this pic a lot. There is a tat too much sky so maybe a different crop. The thing that I'm having issues with is....the title saves it. Without the title I would see no fear.
