Yeah, it's chaotic. A nice first try, too. Good work.

What's the "Things Wooden" sign? That's a bit distracting. And is this possibly over sharpened? Looks like you have some halos on the wires. But that may just be me.

Thanks Jeff! I meant to clone out that sign, and forgot while I had it in PS. I'll do that. Oversharpen may have occured when I resized for web. I will double check but other than the clarity slider in LR, I don't think I did any sharpening until I sharpened for web.

The work here is just so great, I wasn't sure if I was even gonna try. LOL

I am glad you did join in the fun! Yes I agree that the sign should be removed...but this certainly displays the theme in my opinion!:thumb

Thanks!! I'm working on removing the sign. That's not an easy sign to get rid of. haha

I agree that the sign is a bit of a distraction. But it might not be all that bad depending on how you view the photo. It's sitting right next to the wooden poles. So, "Things Wooden" sort of fits in to the composition. :dunno

This was a tough clone job for me!! Anyone feel free to CC it pretty toughly. Oh I also didn't sharpen for web to try and get rid of the oversharpness of it. Thanks everyone!

I definately prefer this one, the halos around some of the wires are gone.
Your clone job on the sign isn't bad but I would look to extend the telegraph pole down to meet its bottom section, at the moment it is cut in two by the clone of the sign.

A very nice display of chaos! I too noticed the telephone pole that has a section missing. Other than that, it looks good!

Ooooh I can see how it looks like that. It actually goes behind the log that comes in front of it. I may try and clean that up where it doesn't look so cut in two. Or I suppose I could always just move the pole to in front of that log. Thanks!! :)

Then again.... looking back maybe it wasn't supposed to go behind. I need to look at my original. ROFL

Edited to say I replaced it with a cloned pole. LOL Y'all were right! =))
