Deer Fence III
The deer mesh also throws some very nice shadows on the poppies and nasturtiums that it protects (would deer eat poppies I wonder?).
There are other deer fencing shots in this series. I think the best image for showing how the mesh appears in shadow is the second one, with layers of shadows or projections of dark areas from the mesh (I know, same thing; but the pit in the upper right corner is not the classic form of shadow I don’t think).

You know, I actually like the first (second in this series) mesh image…I LOVE how it’s showing through in the light reflection (sorry, it’s been a LONG week and my brain just can’t function on how I want to explain things right now). Oh, and of course those water droplets rock the image!

Thanks David – that second image is one of my favourites from the whole week of these things. The light is odd, the reflection or refraction or shadow or whatever it is in part of the image works so well – all those echoes of one piece of fencing (at least I think it is one bit).

Love the photos, Ehpem! The mesh really does make a lovely subtle shadow; I’ll have to remember that, though I usually keep flowers away from our deer fence. Deer generally don’t eat poppies, but they do love nasturtiums, as you probably already know.

Hi Lynn! The poppies are volunteers I am pretty sure. The nasturtiums are wonderfully edible to deer, and humans too.

I really like the shadow of the fence on the flower with the blurry fence in the background in the second shot. Nice stuff,

Thank you Ken. I find that shot interesting – there is a double ‘shadow’ in the background on the right side and it is not really all that blurry. I wonder if it is lens flare of some kind, or otherwise is projected from a patch of dew or other bright light source. It does not quite make sense to me.
