Your capture is interesting. Those mailboxes look charming among the abundance of dry wild weeds and green grass. Your photo is excellent focused and exposed and has good depth. The shadows below emphasize the mailboxes above. The photo is well composed. The diagonal presentation of the boxes pleases the eyes and the equilibrium of the viewers. The composition is balanced.

A different idea here for a very interesting view to see these mailboxes of quite a few in a line that looks as if they are far from the residences. Perhaps at the en trance to a country lane. They have it like this in the Portuguese countryside . I like your position to catch the sunlight and the resulting shadows making an excellent composition.

This is a wonderful shot, rural Homer. Those who live in the city are not familiar with the country ways. I was exposed to country ways at an early age, they were hard working, story telling and willing to help and very friendly. Thank you for sharing this. Ray

Interesting capture. I have not come across these scene during my short visits to America. Finely composed and timed this makes interesting viewing!

And, you found the mailboxes, at least15 at one time. I like rural place mailboxes and lots of neat things found there. The tall grass on the one side covers, hides a little but nice photography and thanks for sharing.

    Welcome, artist friend.

Simple but so artistically composed. Your use of shade and shadows makes it feel like we are standing next to you. The lighting is highlighting the tops of the mailboxes and creating the shadows. The naturalness of the landscape is so rural. Tall grasses add to the rustic look.

Pat,
An interesting picture of the Post Boxes in the countryside that seem strange to us in Ireland, where the Postman/mailman delivers to each house. The sunlit grasses behind them are beautiful, while the sunshine highlights the postboxes. Beautiful composition framing and lighting taken with superb camera techniques and sharp focus.

A good looking image posted here of a strange, to me, situation! Here in England Mail is not distributed in such a fashion. Colours, textures and tones are good. Nicely taken!

OUTSTANDING,Pat!
This nicely-presented photograph has a wonderfully 'Authentic' kind of a tone that I'm enjoying tremendously!
They look just like a row of mailboxes on the side of a dirt road ( a Dead End street that leads off into the Dark Woods and
the 'Secret Ravine' ) here in Fort Edward,New York!
