The more I look at this, the more beautiful I think it is. This was a tough choice to make: where to crop to. You chose not to crop it at all. Personally, I think this would have made any of at least 6 gorgeous cropped photographs, with a single powerful angle or focus in each. Any one of them would have been more compelling than this one, good as it is.
Someone once told Mozart: "Too many notes!" I feel a little like I'm saying that.
Very nice piece of work. The front fence doesn't bother me to much, some images are more about the emotion than the technical. I personally am drawn towards images that are more emotionally filled, even if they may be technically flawed. Just an opinion. aj
