| Great use of shallow DOf coupled with the fence making a nice lead line into the pic |

I gave this a 5, but I think I waffled a bit and almost gave it a 4. I suspect other voters are being harder on it. I see some effort to create an interesting composition, however my eye does not go where I think you intended. The large expanse of shrubbery is brighter than the fence and draws my eye instead. A fence around a home is a difficult subject in the first place, as it not terribly interesting by it's nature. A different angle perhaps, or a view from the outside might have helped. Or a skywards view of the fence, shot from the ground. (I'm a big fan of getting really low for a perspective shot.)
Working with just this shot, I'd think perhaps a tighter crop on the fence could benefit the composition, using the "rule of thirds" and some adjustments (such as curves, saturation, contrast & sharpening) could help to pull out some more detail and visual pop from the subject. |
