Challenge for Pictures in a Series: Motif or Concept Fences

[Asher Kelman]

I would like to challenge everyone to make a fence their subject!

A fence I passed tonight while driving beautiful Sunset Boulevard, Los Angeles!

On our fence

Antonio,

A superb choice! We must look at what we do and not just choose as subject pretty scenes and beauty or terrifying storms.

What you show reveals a lot more about human society and architecture responding to community circumstances!

I love it as it’s actually an intimate sampling of how we live.

It demonstrates the subject of security and residual fear even as we have homes built like never before!

Jim,

Good job!

Does it have a nut in its mouth or do they have awfully pale tongues?

You both show that fences and walks are not just uninteresting barriers, but they are the junction between zones of life!

It’s surprising, Antonio, that they chose such a garish combination for iron that had rusted. It has been renovated with new steel and is now well decorated. I wonder where the yellow paint eas used in thr building.

But this tells of a community that has attempted to spruce up but there’s little question that have gave more hour de cover than money!

That is a nut in it's mouth 😂

This is a delicious architectural delight. The reappearance in the background of the curved wrought iron in the window is wonderful. I am surprised they inside ones bow inwards!

Country side
Old iron protections perhaps surely older then 100 years allowing to see who is in the proximity.
Note the decaying embroidery...
