    Lovely! The silhouettes at the bottom and the wire above, frames the sunset perfectly.

    Nice capture, barbed wire is great for adding interest to an image.

    Like a cross with a crown of thorns. So dramatic and symbolic.

    Its actually quite fascinating when you use three prompts and come up with a haiku so delightful as this one is!These prompts combined make for creative thinking which you excel at, MMT!

    I like looking at the barbed wire in the photograph, but I surely do not like walking up upon it when I have to figure how to get over it without cutting myself. This weekend we have to go out and start cutting some out where some old fence posts have rotted and are falling over. I like looking at your picture a lot more that I am going to like doing what I have ahead of me to do. genie

    Indeed you have captured a “river of light” with this photo. The barbed wire makes this photo more than just a “pretty” picture.

    I agree with the comment of Genie, no one wants to jump or climb over the wire. It gives a beautiful background on the sky, great photo.

    Have a nice weekend.

    Beautiful sunset MMT! This brings me to sort of a cowboy country , The cowboys are back from their rounds at dusk to gather around the fire and having their chow! Great haiku!

    Great photo. I like the thought of the sun and moon rising and falling. I guess I should add the stars to that as well. Another beautiful haiku.

    Peace
