24 May

I've been stressed out and snappy at work today. There seemed to be a problem with everything I had to do.
This morning I just wanted to walk out yet, later, I felt I needed to stay until midnight to get things sorted.
PaD was the last thing on my mind so, being lazy, this gate and fence, which continues at right angles, is a 5 minute walk from home.
Just about de-stressed now, after a short time on Pbase.

Nikon D70 ,Sigma 55-200mm f/4-5.6 DC
1/160s f/4.5 at 86.0mm ISO 200 full exif

other sizes: small medium large auto

Great patterns and background.

Pbase has been recommended by 9 out of 10 Doctors for relieving stress!
Take care of yourself Sheena, a good walk helps. And the gate does seem to indicate some barriers which may need broken down.

mellow! You are at home now, with family and friends... is the gate a metaphor for closing the day out?

I can see the anger coming out, the sharp teeth of the fence, the closed yet slightly open gate. Nice shot, I like the tones, shapes and DoF in the bg.
Look after yourself, it's only a job, life is more important.

I think a lot of us are overworked at the moment! Great catch Sheena, like the DOF and the detail. Glad pbase is helping you destress!

I like the lines, the cool slanted fence, and the background.

I had the same stressful day too.
It ended well enough with some quality time with friends and some exciting plans for a holiday.

Hope your day closes well too.

A symbolic shot... to run away or stay in... =)
