That's the nice part of BP site--I get to see all the other great pictures out there and learn from what they (and you) see. #2104493

Ken,
I don't remember some of these shots! (I also don't remember where I put my keys yesterday though...:) ).
This is a terrific shot!
Would someone please tell me why we like fences so much? And why they usually have to be aligned from front to back?
