The last three work extremely well as setting sun shots with the wooden fence line a joy to look at, although I rather like both goldenrod pictures too

Gorgeous shots! I always love opening up your threads, I can't wait to see the scenery! Love the fall colors in the first, with the zigzaggy lines of the fences. The goldenrod shots are just lovely, I've never seen it before. The illuminated fence is my favorite I think - I just love how simple and contrasting it is.

These are so beautiful!! I swear i feel so relaxed having looked at them *could be the beer* I love the zig zag of the fence in the first and the color of the trees, the sun and the bokeh effect of the second and fourth, but the third with the glowing... almost blazing, fence is really gorgeous! awesome shots!!
