Journeys-end fence

Journeys-end fence
A lovely Western Ireland bay sees us here with another fence. Where this started can only be guessed at, but we certainly know where it ends. Note the twisted white and black wire, usually denoting an electric fence wire so beware in trying to cross it.

I wish you all, a great weekend, Herb

A superb coastal image, not sure about the electric fence no sign of the usual fittings maybe something they found in the barn !! I hope you are having a HFF Herb enjoy your weekend
5 years ago.
Herb Riddle club has replied to Peter Castell club
Ah Peter, you see what I later suspected. Not really electric, well at least not 'live' as there were no isolation between the wire and post. Probably a bit of old electric fence wire he just found useful to fix that bit of fence. There were some cows around here. Glad you liked it.

Two stunning coastal landscape images...............the sky is lovely in both. In the PiP, I really like the wave action and the amount of detail in the foreground rocks including the different colours of the lichen. In the main image the fence acts as a great leading line. Great work Herb..!!

HFF to you and have a splendid weekend.
5 years ago.
Herb Riddle club has replied to Keith Burton club
Keith you continue to be very flattering with my work, but I do enjoy it and know you would not say such nice things if you did not mean them. Yes, done on the same afternoon trip. I did see the fence right away as a contender here. Glad you liked them both.

Peter_Private_Box club
Hi Herb,

I like this very much. As ever, superbly sharp, and well thought out.

I guess the electric fence is to keep cattle in the desired place, and their hoofs would be too unsteady on the rocks, so no need to go further!

Best Wishes, HFF, and a Good Weekend
Peter
