benchshade

There is a certain simplicity here that I like.

I've looked around for the perfect park bench but I don't think I've even come close to the feel of this piece. The colour is great and I particularily like the shadow as it extends from the bench to the path.

 

I thought I saw your best yesterday. I was wrong. I like this one better.

thank you for any comment and rating, jean

Outstanding. Love the colour, the texture of the path... and of course that shadow

Jean,

 

Bravo and good job. I like all the elements of this picture and agree about the simplicity. That makes the picture to me. It's something we probably see every day but never really SEE. Good job! Chris

It is simple and It is very nice. Good lighting Jean.

Very nice composition

I'd think it would be perfect with the bright area above the bench burned in a tiny bit darker.

Wow ! Superbe, ca, Jean... Une image qui me touche vraiment beaucoup...

This is a kind of photo I especially appreciate: a simple subject exploited to the maximum and turned into a beautiful image. Perfect composition and nice framing add the final touch. The only "flaw" that I dare find is the excess of light in the upper part of the photo, above the bench. I'd rather sacrifize a bit of detail in the path below for the sake of having that part less burnt. Anyway, a great picture.

A great picture to look at over and over again.

this one is my favorite...

 

lovely...

 

I enjoy the color here and how the sun is situated in the top. I find myself drawn to empty benches for photography as well.

awesome pic again, man...very nice light and color, and i love the angle, and the shadow of the bench, it looks almost mighty, i mean the park bench here in its full beauty and power, complaining about the asses it is "confronted" with day by day....thats poetry!!!

This is beautifully captured, and one of my favorites.

I'll never look at benches the same way now.
