Devil's Slide Fence (Good Fences Link-Up)

I've always enjoyed photographs of fences. They offer such variety and visual interest. It's a fascination shared by my blog friend Carola Bartz, whose blog offers stunning photography and stories of a German Expat in Northern California. She was the inspiration for including "a fence" in a previous Summertime Photography Scavenger Hunt. So, imagine my happy surprise when she linked up recently to a new-to-me weekly meme called "Good Fences Link-Up, sponsored by The Run*A*Round Ranch Report blog.  I've kindof fallen in love with that blog a little bit, for its wonderful photography and cowgirl-up feel, so I wanted to link up with this week's Fences meme. I took this photograph on the Devil's Slide trail, which I blogged about yesterday.  If you're interested in fences (or just good photography), go check out Carola's and TexWisGirl's blogs. You won't be disappointed.

I came here for your Good Fence. Great vanishing point photo. Devil's Slide. Its been years since I was last there. Hmm..maybe an upcoming road trip?

Could easily be some highway in Canada....modern road running through rugged mountains.... I had to check the write up to find out where it is ....

It could be a highway in Utah as well. Rinda is such an unusual name but I have a friend here named Rinda as well.

How awesome! I looked at your other post, too and that is an amazing road...and a bit scary, too! Nice photo of good fences! Hugs, Diane

What a great angle you shot this fence at. Now following your blog.

I live in the SF Bay Area - very familiar with the Devils Slide area. This is a much prettier view than the ones we get on the news after a good rain! Love the shadow effect of the fence in this photo!

Great fence photo --especially the jutting rock formations behind it.

I think I'll take up your scavenger hunt challenge, although I can't imagine where I might run into a few of the listed scenes. But that's the challenge, isn't it?

Love the angle you've taken it on. Last year when you had fence as one of the hunt items I thought I'd take pictures of a bunch of different fences and do something with them but so far that hasn't happened. :)
