Fence along the Road

Picture of road fence from Hunter Valley. The Hunter Valley is located in NSW inustralia, around 120-300 km north of Sydney. It is one of the largest river valleys on the NSW coast. Hunter Valley Region is one of Australia's most famous wine-growing regions, known for both its red and white wine varieties (Shiraz, Semillon, Cabernet Sauvignon, Pinot Noir, Chardonnay):toast:
But Hunter Valley is also well known for its coal industry :mad: There is increasing tension between the coal mining industry and some other industries because of the environmental impacts of coal mining including dust, water usage, water contamination, and destruction of agricultural land, and the impact of coal trucks on local and regional roads. :confused:

Very attractive collection of colors and leading lines. I like the feeling that this creates of "what's over the ridge".

This is one of those pictures that one can look at for a long time, finding all the different interesting elements in it. It has a lot going on! I like the different types of fences, the road disappearing over the hill, the vineyards, and the tire skid marks on the road. Even the electric poles add interest as they disappear down the side of the hill. Thanks also for sharing the setting info, Miro.

A nice scenic, Miro. I like the fences that complement the road.
