I was just playing around this morning with the colors and textures of this house (red), fence and Ivy. Shot this with the 100 macro so the worn out, flaky paint on the fence looks great on the actual large photo.

Eric,
This is great...maybe a little too much on the upper portion of the image...a small crop off the top would balance it out more...but this is cool. It will make a great print...
First, thanks for the 5D tip, man! The one time I didn't look on C-list
I like this in total, and Rick's idea might be worthwhile, but I would say if the orange BG was more OOF, that would make this an even bigger winner. Even as it is, I really like it, and it's good to see you back in the saddle again.

i agree with Kevin on the orange BG - I'd lose as much texture detail (the square lines) so that the texture you focus on is the fence. That would make it even better, but it's nice as it is also.

I would suggest to crop some of the orange background. The texture in the wood along with the green really works good together. Nice one!
