Palouse Fence

I'm getting ahead of myself with this photo, but I wanted to include it in the Thursday Good Fences meme.  Plus it's a good image to follow yesterday's wide angle shot, because this is a pretty good example of using my zoom lens to abstract a scene, in this case into shapes and colors.  This scene is deep down one of the many unpaved roads that snake through the Palouse.  It's not the best introduction to this region, but I'll have to save that for tomorrow...

It's a lovely lovely abstract with line, textures, color, movement...& still a reference to reality. I love that.

I like the colors, and the "simplicity" of this picture!

i LOVE this! the fields create a palette of watercolor, and the fences are like the ink lines folks add in. :)

thanks for linking in!

The contrasting colors bring out the shapes of the land forms nicely. the colors are very earthy. Enjoyed. -- barbara

Dearest Melissa,
That is a very special photo with fences in it. Great shot I would love to say. Don't know where Palouse is located but I like it!

The blocks of color on the different sections is really cool!
