Rain, rain, go away.....

The wet and rainy weather continues. I am beginning to wonder whether the sun has gone the way of the dodo bird and become extinct. I think that it is out there somewhere, but at this point, I cannot be certain. It is ridiculous how much rain we are getting and it is starting to irk me. It has also impacted my blipping and I am trying to stay motivated.

This fence is right on my way to work and I decided to blip it because it was there. I like the interesting pattern of the gate and the receeding fence line. I purposefully shot wide open to blur the background. There was a distracting sign and some roads in the background that I decided to remove with PS. Here is the undoctored version if you are interested.


Photoshop:
Clone stamp layer to remove power lines, poles and road sign
Clone stamp layer to remove road (Why not!)
Curves layer for contrast

Constructive criticism always welcome although I fear that the quality of my photography has declined as I have become more annoyed with the weather!
