Barbed wire I have seen aplenty
over the hills and round the bend
where the posts sprouted like trees waiting on leaves, the barbs held up tufts of hair from a nameless cow.
Our Flower Pot
I've also seen plenty of barbed wire in my day, in fact I bear a scar under my knee-cap where a barb grabbed me one day as I took a short-cut through the field. Love the photo
Looks like an old fence. Nice work.
Heddie ho, little farm chick! great macro! I personally like the rust. This be used as a torture device couldn't it? :)
Perfect Caption!! Fabulous shot!
Ouch. Wonder why I was named Barb? Doesn't seem right to me at all.
Ouch indeed! Wonderful macro tho.

Wonderful macro!
This type of fencing wire is very used here as well!
Kind regards

Hugs,

Rusty or not, it performs its duty!
I wish I had a dollar for each time I got stuck by a barb when stringing fence with my dad. Great picture -- rust and all.
I suppose they ARE necessary?
Great capture, wow.
Have a fantastic week

I will admit that I have tore clothes on those little barbs....
This is wonderful. It makes me think of Leonard Cohen's song...like a bird on a wire.
Love this. I've been hung up on barbed wire for years! Well, not actually, since I was young and stupid and tried to crawl over, under or through barbed wire fences...
This is very cool the texture is wonderful and there is a lot of great detail in your shot. Your focus is spot on!
Living in the country, I have come in contact with barbed wire plenty when I was younger. Such a great shot EG! I'm always amazed how trees can continue to grow around old wire.

Be careful! That stuff bites. :)
Back to answer your question. . . the last photo of mine showed a gazebo in the background. I stood in the middle of the rose garden so I could get it in the background. The roses all come from the city's Rose Garden we have in the downtown park. We have a Rose Society that plants and takes care of them. It is free to look at the roses.
They will be having a rose show this Saturday at a church near me and will be bringing roses from their own gardens to compete so I will get even more photos of roses. Ü
I am glad you enjoy seeing them.
Ouch for sure! Loved your TF poppy
macro..stunning!smiles NG
I tore so many pairs of jeans hopping over barbed wire fences as a kid!
Barbed wired always gives me the heebie-geebies. I think I've got too vivid an imagination and I always remember this old B&W movie where a girl tried to escaped from a girls' school/camp/prison type thing and died cause she got stuck on the barbed wired. Shuddering at the thought even now.
i love this. i always thought the barbs looked like little hands and fingers. can you tell i grew up on a farm and walked to school down a long laneway each day.
