I never go anywhere without my camera and while I was at the local farm store I decided to take a walk into the fencing area and came up with what I think is a cool b/w photo. What do you think?

WOW! You nailed this. Black shadows, sharp but not overblown hilights, spot-on focus. And the most incredible is your photographer's eye. Who'd have thought to use this subject. I've always thought that what separates great photographers from mediocre ones is that the great ones arent embarrassed when folks walk by us sneering, "Who would take a picture of THAT?". :thumbup: Good job.

OUCH!!! It reminds me of the time as a kid me and my cousin Steve decided to have a fence jumping contest... over a barbed wire fence. I lost, and am still surprised to this day that I was eventually able to sire offspring.

Hello Emmett. Well, actually, most of my offspring look more like their Great Uncle Everett than anyone else in the family. Never exactly figured that one out. Great Uncle Everett, according to my grandmother, just showed up one day and never left. He made himself useful enough around the farm that they let him stay. He had a habit of hiding cookies in the dining room cupboard, and after meals he'd reach around back and take a cookie out and eat it, never offering anyone else even so much as a nibble. I guess it must run in the family as I often have strong urges to do the exact same thing.
