Just found this photo.
Very nice shot.
Something about this reminds me of the crown of thorns.

Hello Heida.
I've just discovered your portfolio and am in awe at your work. Have saved you as a favorite and hope that one day I'll develop the same inspiration as you.
I've looked through almost all of your pictures and I think this one is my favourite - although it was a tough decision.
Looking forward to enjoying more of your work in the future.

I really like the color tones you have used, and the background works very well. Great composition

I've ponder this one several times and I am now finally able to say that I like it very much. The item that has turned me in its favor is the excellent color of the DOF and tone of the subject. Excellent definition and while the composition might have gone angular one way or the other, i'll let that go due soley to the steel blue gray color.

Interesting closeup of the barbed wire. Great textures. I like the background really makes the composition dynamic. It really pushes out the subject and makes it pop out of the shot. The colors makes it seem like a cold image, thus the feeling of the metal. "10"

Fantastic shot, love the blueish color, and fits the theme vey well.

I absolutely love the monochrome feel to this, and the way the background really enhances the sharpenss of those barbs. Excellent shot. I'm inspired to try something like it, myself. Perfectly fitting the challenge as well. 9

Lovely lovely toning on this one, love that blue!! Although I love narrow DOF, I wish it extended a bit more into the right hand barb. Texture and detail here is marvelous. Yummy.

Nice. Black and white would have been stronger!

Love it. Choice of color is somehow appropriate. Composition and lighting beautiful. 10

Ah! would have been a nice entry to the conflicts challenge as well - good composition and tones

Simple and to the point (not a pun!) One of my favorites of the challenge.

Very beautiful.

Nice shot. Good colors, seems like a bit too much burning though.

Great detail and shallow DOF. Beautiful color too. Well done.

Keep it up...

stunning picture. 10. easy. totally deserves a ribbon. I think it's my favourite this week. gorgeous.

Nice colours, great background - love that "cloud" feel. "X" composition of wires works well as does shallow DOF. Interesting texture on the wire itself - like old paint that's worn off.

Very well done, I especially like the grey/blue toning. The only thing that might make it better is if both barbs were in focus. But as is, it is very nice :)

I really like the color tones you chose here. The blues give a very cold feeling to the picture and complitments the barbed wire very well.

Lovely focus, tones and light. Like this one, hope you do well with this good entry.

Nice colors, and the dark fringe on the top and bottom edges bracket the wire quite well!

I think you did an excellent job! Perfect for this challenge.
