Circular fence

Circular fence
Taken in the beautiful Polish mountain resort of Zakopane.
I spotted this fence and shadows whist listening to a lecture on rock formations by our guide. Being the person I am, I was more interested in capturing this for the next HFF despite withering (but maybe jealous) looks from other members of our party!
I wish you all, a great weekend, Herb

Another week another fence. Glad you like it Rosa. With heavy rain and drizzle all night I would think that that had put out any remaining fires. Thanks for the thoughts my friend.

Herb Riddle club has replied to grobi358 club
Hi Grobi - I have been awaiting a geologist to come here and say what you said:) I must admit I was torn to listen and indeed was within earshot as I snapped this. In that way I don't think I missed much. Very happy that you enjoyed this all the same.

Among the many pleasures of photography is always having an excuse to step away from lengthy lectures or awkward conversations. And this fence/shadow was a worthy excuse, with its shadows set so well against the geometric patterns of the cobblestones and tiles.

Herb Riddle club has replied to Sarah P. club
Sarah, I often compare 'me and my camera' as 'me and my dog'. It allows me to do things and go places were generally I might not or should not go, for many reasons. Glad that we are of the same understanding and even more so that you enjoyed my end result here.

Very cleverly taken Herb................the fence is actually quite lovely, but it's the fence's ahadow that make the shot for me! HFF to you, and have a splendid weekend.

Some of my photographer friends laugh at me taking photos of fences........but I can't resist them sometimes............I've built up quite a gallery of them for use on Fridays..!!

Dear Keith, your considered responses to my photographs are always most welcome. I realised some time ago that we mirror each other in snapping and thoughts behind them. Like you, this group has given new life and purpose to Fridays and fences.

Thanks Peter -that is what I always think when I am following these tour guides and they stand for a long chat about something that I can easily look up once home. Garden tea-party invite this afternoon whilst football is on. Bad timing it seems.

Hi Herb,

Superb composition in so many ways..
Three circles for the shadows, a strong diagonal, and the main circles + its shadow on the opposing golden sections.
Great respect and admiration for thinking this out while listening to the rock formation lecture!

Best wishes, HFF, and a good weekend

Herb Riddle club has replied to Peter_Private_Box club
Thanks a lot Peter. Very happy that you liked it. I would like to say, yes, I thought it all out but in truth I just slowly made my way to this higher fenced area next to our path, noticed the great shadows and shot. Just time for two shots before our 40 strong party was off again.

HFF and have yourself a great weekend, Herb
