While the sunlight may have overpowered this image, I think that if you had boosted the contrast in an editing program, you would have found more depth of color in the subject matter may have offset the lighting challenges.
While the subject of this photo is very interesting, it is a little on the bright side. I suggest putting a shade over your camera or not shooting into the sun. : )
This looks like a very neat location. The shot has merrit if editing in a different way. Needs more contrast for one, an adjustment can also help get rid of the flare near the right shot of the pic. Best try not to shoot directly into the sun, especially if you dont have a lens hood. I do also find the fancy frame isn't needed here ;) just something simple can go a long way.
The curve of this fence might have been very nice if you had gotten up closer and taken it from a different angel, with more focus on the fence itself. Its also way washed out.
the image is really poor and washed out and the frame is a real distraction...you may want to try this interesting fence from another angle, and cut out the ghastly frame...sorry :-(
The frame on this makes the picture seem more fuzzy or misty by contrast... not sure if that was the intention? Love the line the fence creates here, though - great angle! Gives a nice flow overall, just wish it was clearer.
Contrast could definitely be better - if you have Photoshop, a level or curves adjustment might be something to try. I do like the composition here - I feel like it is an interesting angle on the whole scene, as well as having a neat contrast between curves and lines.
I am not keen on the external part of the border. This may not have been the best time of the day to photograph this particular scene - the haziness may be caused by shooting in to the light (as indicated by the shadows). That said, you have a well composed shot with a nice sweep of the fence leading the eye.
Whatever software you used to create this "frame" effect on your border is nice. But the picture is way, way too washed out and overexposed. It's just not attractive and makes me feel like I should be squinting.
