I adore old wood, old doors and benches are my favourite. This old gate is lovely but although I would be hard pushed to tell you how you should change your composition there are some things in what is a technically good shot that do not work as they should, perhaps it is the top rail leading the eye out of the image, I’m not sure.
PS - love rusty things as well

What I'd like to say about Martin's comment is something Don told me when I asked about "The Artistic Eye". Find a subject and photograph it from 25 different angles...at least. Until you find what you are happiest with.
Now, I've got to admit, I still don't go that mad (especially if I'm out with wife/kids in tow), and I know my shots don't yet have that extra sparkle, but it is still a rule of thumb I keep in the back of my mind.
Don't take your wife and kids with you, when you know photography is going to be the main event.
Rule nr two;
Don't take your wife and kids with you, when you suspect photography is going to be the main event.
Rule nr three;
If the first two rules don't apply, take a point and shoot, invest in your family to build up credit/patience for the future.
Happy hunting,
Martin.
