| Barry, Super shot. Love the sun rays poking through the clouds and the bright green grass. Congrats on another top 20 finish too. |

| Pretty scene! Nice tones on the fence and grass, but the clouds look a little blown out to me, but that's just my humble opinion. |

| I really like the concept of your photograph. I can see symbolism that denotes the emotions of people looking at the battleground or even giving their opinions of war. |

Really pretty. The blue sky and the green grass are so rich.
Great fence separating the two. |

| I'm a fan of battlefields and the split rail fences - so I automatically like your image. Good saturation and I like the sunlight filtering through the clouds. Nice countryscape. |

Great shot. The dark sky really brings a foreboding feeling. Very good title. I would like to see it in sepia tone. I think that might lend it a real 1865 feel.
The shot could have been a little underexposed as the texture of the top of fence braces gets lost, but that is a real nit.
Wonderful shot. |
