great pic, i've seen it on your blog bevore! i just don't think it fits the theme as good as others... other than that it's really awesome!
oh yea... congrats for your nomination!

The color and brightness gradients here add nicely to the effect. It's brighter on the other side, but there doesn't appear to be an easy way to get there. Thanks for sharing! Cheers!

This image speaks volumes. Very powerful.

This is really the quintessential photoblogger's shot. :) That is not at all meant to be derogatory! But that's the first thought that popped into my head when I saw it.

What I like about this image is its sharpness, the nice control of exposure (the sky is not blown out and yet the fence is perfectly silhouetted), and the diagonal lines created by this titled framing.

I liked this when I saw it on your blog and like it now. Funnily I now see something differant in it, the pattern of the fence reminds me of fish scales for some reason.... maybe I havn't slept enough. :-)
