Description
Captured 6/11/13, early morning, as I roamed and sneaked alongside the long back walls of an industrial area.
I think they're trying to send a message that says, Don't Try It.
Ultra keen viewed full size.
Uncharacteristically, I had a hell of a time thinking up a title.
And, for some inexplicable reason, I'm not getting any ebots, which puts the kibosh on any comments to you all.
Arrivederci, and have a nice day.

Like the pov on this one Harry, and clever idea for the title.
Stunning capture ... very very well done !
Nice perspective on a couple levels,
Cutting edge is right. Nice shot!
It would cut more than an edge if you tried to climb that, I'm afraid...but what an excellent capture, with that artistic tilt and lovely rainbow flare! Well done you, and I've gotten very few ebots at all the last couple of days, although yours was one of the few that got through. Wonder what's up?
Fantastic lighting my friend, excellent camera angle, first class shot!
This is a stunning shot! I love the angle and depth. It makes a very threatening and dramatic silhouette. I had never seen barbs like the ones on the spiraled section. I went googling and read about barbed tape and razor wire. Great title and fantastic shot!
That is some serious barbed wire! I particularly le your composition here. Nicely done Harry. (As to your question about my cameras ability for macro, there is a setting on the camera, but I just prefer my 100m lens, for the clarity and sharpness I can get from it)
Great perspective in this shot--sure not a fence to climb over!!
Perfect!
An excellent image!!
great shot!!
This is what you call a " Triple Threat Security Fence". Two types of barbed wire added to an already a semi intimidating stake fence. Nice shot ! The sunset gives this image a nice touch.
Someone doesn't want you in there, do they? Like the sun there, well caught! Rob
I'm going to have to stop here, for now, simply because of the hour. I'll be back for more in a week or two, hopefully sooner. (Maybe I'll upload something in that time, I'll see...) But I could't leave tonight without commenting on this one. First off, angled shots are often gimmicky; but occasionally an angle really captures the essence of the scene, and this is one of those examples. It's perfect for the subject: You've, in essence, straightened out the barb wire, so it's "straight" while everything else is angled; and the effect is that the wire is "encasing" us, almost embracing us. Odd feeling, considering what barbed wire does. But it's a fine combination; and it almost makes the wall look like we can tilt it over with a tap. But the wire, then, fans out into the fence below, which is punctuated by that big flared sun---I'm a fan of sun flare when used artistically, as it here. (Ie, not for effect, but for the art of the shot.) Further, you give us enough of the background to show us there is background---that snippet of ground and poles in the far right. And the clouds and flare lines make a perfect "X" (or "V") near the center of the shot, as nice counterpoint to the wire and fence, etc. Looks like you had to do some sneaking for this shot: Usually it's not easy to get this close to these places, without someone screaming or honking or whatever. When I did industrial shots, a lot of foremen came out and said, "what the hell YOU lookin' at!" I waved my camera and they grunted and walked inside. Takes forbearance to deal with those growls. (Of course I was there mid day, when everyone is out, and NOT a fan of photographers...) The light and dark in this shot is eerie and intense. And it's a really fine abstract too. Beautiful work with a foreboding subject, and the tilt makes us feel the world has gone awry. FIne work, Harry. I'll be back sooner this time than last time; but, as always, it's a great pleasure to be here. I hope this finds you well, once more. You do terrific work here, that's for sure...
