The topic for our October '13 competition is 'Fences'.
Dig out your pics & post 'em up. If you don't have any of fences, grab your camera, jump in your Patrol (great excuse to get out) & go find one to photograph. This is a monthly topic that just about every member should be able to have a crack at, lets have as many folk participating as possible.
For the enlightenment of our non Aussie members, what might be referred to as a wall elsewhere can also be called a fence in Australia. Eg, a stone or brick fence.

Old fence line across salt lake. (Lake Ballard, WA).
You would have to wonder how often the wire had to be replaced whilst the posts were still in good order with all that salt.

Just before Dallarnil, traveling to Biggenden. Stretched the legs and took a few photos. What I can make of it, the ranges in the back ground are part of State Forest / Woowonga NP with a scientific area next to it. Fairlies Knob NP is at the back of them.
It`s the only decent shot that I have of a fence. Turned out better than I thought. Your picture reminds me of a few salt lakes (if you can call them that) up towards Three Springs way.
