Well I was not really sure if I should post this photo I took yesterday but I really want to know what you guys think of this shot. I just tried to keep this photo simple but yet interesting not sure if it worked though :p
As usual, any kind of criticism is welcome :p

To be honest, the fact that you've not captured any of the points of the fence really, really puts me off.

Ehm. I like the shadow. But eh... I think it is a bit uninteresting, and the cropping is funny, look at the top of the fence. :)
The grass is beautifully green though.

Thanks for the replies :)
Well I guess the only reason I like this photo is the greeness mr Mads pointed out ^^
Maybe I should have cropped more but oh well.

It'd look much better in black and white and if the top of the fences were in the frame. Take a shot like that and post it, promise you it'll look better.

this. and when looking for something simple in pic, it must allso have something really intresting, like lines, colors etc. Allso when there isnt much to look at you notice small mistakes on composition, colors etc waaay easier, so simple needs to be perfect allso

Not forgetting texture, which is what black and white absolutely excels in.

I think I know which mistakes I made when I took this one so I guess I will have to go back there and take a better one later on :) Thanks again for the advice. You guys are the greatest! :)
