One of my useful rules is: "If you can't find a bottle of scotch, go out looking for a wire fence."
This one protects some railway sidings at Mt Victoria, where they park some of the Sydney inter-urban
sets when they're not needed for peak hour timetables. The heavens were gloriously blue and the
barbed coils made threatening patterns in the sky.

Yup I like this photograph. Beautifully captured, nothing like a bit of razor wire to set the mood.

Terrific gradation in the blue - love the angle of the wire into the distance - I can see you have used a wide angle here - learning!!!

That's a powerful blue sky - no wonder it needs protecting! :)

Barbed wire means unpleseant. Here however presented beautifully. V
