Exquisite image. HFF.

Précision, cadrage, traitement..tout y est extra

très graphique !! HFF Keith

I do like it Keith! Nature is a wonderful artist but you have to be a good photographer to bring it alive! I will you the same word as Jean...exquisite!!

HFF and have a good weekend with your family.

Schöne Entdeckung, HFF!

Wonderful capture and superb muted colours you had great vision to even see this shot Keith, I'm sure I would have walked on past without noticing.
HFF and a superb weekend.

Much as the compact camera gave options, cameras only do as well as their owners. HFF and have a great weekend.

So well seen and very nice processed ! HFF, Keith ! Enjoy your weekend and stay careful !

That is really lovely Keith - nature as artwork. I love the patterns of the wood grain and the trailing twigs with the odd leaf attached and the touches of blue enhance it beautifully. HFF and have a good weekend

HFF:-)

Die schönen Dinge liegen oft so nahe, man muss sie nur erkennen.
Ich mag die Formen, Strukturen und das schüttere Blau. Ein schöner Fund und eine großartige Komposition!
HFF, Keith! Ich wünsche dir ein schönes und nicht zu heißes Wochenende!
Wegen meiner Reise bin ich noch im Rückstand, werde aber in den nächsten Tagen nachholen.

Very nice indeed Keith. Looks like some of our dead vines that lined our old garage walls.I like your presentation here Great feeling of quality. Well done.

HFF, have a safe and happy weekend. Herb

HFF, Keith!

Cool graphic work, Keith! It has a touch of ice, but it's paint, I guess?

Thanks Jörg. Glad you like it.

The blue colour is actually green lichen on the fence - it was using the inbuilt art filter in my camera that changed the colour to blue, which I thought was very effective.

wonderful details, well seen!
HFF and a safe and sunny weekend, Keith!

HHF Keith!

Fantastic. Have a nice weekend.

A beautiful find...

a most artistic image

A wonderful work!

great details. HAve a good weekend.

Very beautiful

Thanks very much everyone for all your kind and generous comments/yellow stars. I'm really pleased you like this one. The camera I used has been lurking in the back of a cupboard for 2 years or so and I've decided to to drag it out and use it a bit more.

I can't take much credit for the processing - most of it was done as a result of using the art filter in camera. I've never used them before, but they seem great fun :-)

ton abri de jardin est une oeuvre d'art, keith. Il faut que tu le prpose au musée le plus proche. J'aime beaucoup ce travail.En équivalent pictural je pense à Magriite et à Jerome Bosch .On peut imaginer une recherche sur le thème de l'arbre sur fond de "veines" de bois. J'imagine aussi divers personnages.(Je n'ai rien fumé mais certaines images me parlent) L'arbre développerait ses feuilles vers la droite, c'est l'avenir, c'est une oeuvre optimiste.... J'ai compris, tu vends tes oeuvres en déclarant que ce sont des fragments de ton abri de jardin. pour ne pas payer d'impôts, c'est assez malin. amicalement. Jean paul

Ha, ha.............the garden shed has been demolished, this is part of the fence that was hidden behind it. I wish I was as clever as you think I am............I just photograph what I like :-)

Thank you for dropping in and taking the trouble to comment on my photos. I really appreciate it.

Ooh, that's lovely, Keith! You really could just hang that on your wall!

Thank you Diane. The fence or the photo?

Excellent capture and editing with a striking result.

Thank you very much John.............I'm pleased you like it.

This is wonderful. And don't let the fact that you used a built in art filter detract from your accomplishment. All the pieces of the puzzle towards our photographs are tools that are good or bad depending on how the photographer uses them - you found just the right tool for just the right subject -that is an accomplishment.

You've created a very beautiful photograph - I love how the vine looks like a tree, it plays into the fact that it's on wood.

thanks for posting this in my group 'plants vs structures' - i'm so happy to have it there.

Thank you so much Laura............I'm pleased you like it.

I really like this effect, Keith. It's like a 3D sculpture in stainless steel and pewter. Worth framing and hanging in your home.
