I do not know how it is at your place, but here today it is still winter.

Quelle magnifique photo !

thank you for comments and ratings, jean

Really nice photo. I like winterphotos...I have myself some winterphotos..take a look at them if you like. None of them is as good as yours though!!

Simple and Wonderful

I love this photo! Simple. Beautiful.

Jean,

 

This is an absolutely splendid photo! I really love the blue - it makes me feel cold just looking at it!

 

Happy shooting,

 

David.

Moins originale et moins touchante pour moi que l'autre banc, mais quelle splendeur !!... Bravo, Jean... Ca manque un peu de cocotiers aussi, mais je tache de m'y faire... :-)

Jean, I thought about turning the a/c on in Miami today. This picture is wonderful. I wish I had more opportunities to take winter photos. Well done.

Excellent photo. The backdrop is wonderful, only very slightly spoiled by the presence of a wire mesh fence (when you look very close!). Lots of detail and pattern. The bench is an excellent subject in its own right, not having been sat on since the snow fall. Blue tone enhances the winter feel.

(By the way, South coast England is around 10 degrees C and sunny today)

Simple & wonderful x 2

Excellent photo! Felicitation!

 

If I had to say something, I would suggest to exactly center your subject in this case. But that's only if I really had to say something....

it is so relaxing.

 

actually, it is weird because it is so simple and obvious, it makes me think it would have been done so much before, but it has not been. it is actually quite original. simple but somehow very different.

 

like others say, it has a cold look, but it also gives me a warm and cozy feeling. it is like a place where i would go and sit and admire how amazing the snow and the trees are. they are so wonderful . . . and i would just sit there keeping warm and comfortable in my heavy winter coat, and feel the cold air run along my skin, but i would not be cold because of the warmth coming from within.

 

it is very peaceful, not breathtakingly grand like mountain shots, but serene and familiar. i love it!

Congratulations on a suberb portfolio Jean. You have a wonderful eye and I enjoyed seeing your work. I have a fascination with winter shots and landscapes so I will say this is one of my favourites even though all of your work desrves praise. As a beginner I'm always looking for work that I can learn from and is inspiring. Thanks for sharing. Great stuff!!

Jean, you know how I love simple composition. This is simply that and beautiful. Well done. I would have froze my a** off with this one!
