Backyard fence

[terri35 7]

I shot this while visiting my mom in Michigan. I liked the loops of rope, though not a clue what they were for.

This was shot on expired Ilford SFX film. I used a #25 red filter, coupled with a soft focus filter.

Neat - I like the patterns in this.

Thanks John! Yep, it was what caught my eye. Just a fence in the middle of a very ordinary street, otherwise.

Along with the cool patterns, I like the three distinct strata you created with your framing; lawn, fence and bushes.
Very nice tonal range between fence slats.
And I really enjoy the "Americana" feel of this Terri.

Right?! I still can't figure out if there's a purpose behind it. But it begged to be photographed.

Very interesting textures and patterns.

I've seen fences reinforced with rope, but then it's nailed to the fences.

Yes, interesting, well seen and captured. I wonder if they plant peas or grape vines or something along the fence. I'd also be interested in the camera and lens, because the field of view looks a little tighter than, say, 50mm, but I'm not sure...
Overall it's an image that makes one pause, which is delightful!

I shot this with my Mamiya 1000s m645, likely my 80mm lens.

I like the idea of the ropes acting as a kind of loose stake for plants. Best idea yet, it makes sense.

I think you should call your mother. And ask her what the ropes were for. And then of course report back.

It's not her back yard, or I would.
