Row upon row of fences among our gardens.Seperating precisely with prejudice and order.To contain the future intentions in a perfect plan.Yet clever curious weeds seem to wiggle beyond their bounds.And it is as futile to pluck them as snatching ghosts from the wind.For they come and go of their own accord.

cool shot!

This is an haunting image. I can almost see the faces of that two blured people, they seem like incomplete work of God, and they are floating around like ghosts. While the real person is traped in a box, and can do nothing about anything....

At first I thought you had done some kind of multiple exposure, the 2 guys are very alike. Great shot Kal.

I like this for the same reason i liked that orangy pic with the bike, I like how the motion blur kind of stylises the figures into tim burton like figures or like sculpture figures :-) I like how the half dissapear aswell, some kind of dr who strange time travel action?

It's fantastic. The moving guys seem to be soldiers marching. Hey, promise me I get your lenses if you get run over, okay?

Vote. This is just, creatively done.

Love that there is detail in the face, very hard to capture. Great movement.

I like the motion of the two men on the left size.

Kal, I have had that happen a few times. Glad you are ok.

Duncan, no intentional shake..I was on the road and had a second to grab the picture before being run over...even I get nervous sometimes, so at that shutter speed I was always going to struggle. Thanks for letting me know it bothered you...I must admit it did bother me at first but I got used to it (it is also my picture so I am more forgiving!!) K

Nice image

Kal,

I like the image and the motion in it but there does seem to be a bit of camera shake in it that is a bit bothersome to my eye. Was it intentional? I am curious. The composition is superb and so is the concept of mixing a still subject with moving ones.

I like the motion.
