Have a great day, and a great holiday season!
To me there is something a little sinister about this photo. I would definitely feel some angst if I had to approach that bench and sit down. I don’t know why because it is an excellent photo.
Kala – This is so beautiful. Those golden tones, and the focus are amazing!
I hope you had a wonderful holiday, and are looking forward to the New Year.
That’s a lovely edit from one of your favourite benches. Oh to have golden warm days like that rather than the dark and dreek days with the slushy sleety snow that is falling here.
Stunning shot, Kala. Love this style you are moving into.
Hope you had a Merry Christmas…and all the best for the New Year. Thanks so much for being so encouraging – you were my first follower (besides myself!) and I can’t tell you how much your kind words and comments have meant to me.
You got some wonderful photos! I like the effects you add in postprocessing.
In this photo, I believe composition, is the strongest point, among the way the branches seems to lean towards the bench.
Oh, so nice – for some reason this photo makes me think of a poet – perhaps because it looks like the perfect place for something to get away and write
Another marvelous “macro” … such a gorgeous golden glow! Thanks for dropping by and the New Year’s wish… Wishing you all the best in 2011 and hoping to find more time for myself to visit your lovely blog! :_)
This is awesome. Like something out of a dream.
Thanks Kevin!
I agree w/ Kevin… it’s like something out of a dream! Beautiful!!! =)

A part of me sees what you’re seeing Quilly – that the branches are a bit menacing as if reaching out to grab whoever is sitting on the bench.
A wonderful and peaceful photo you made here Kala!! I realy love it;-)
Thanks Richard.
Gold! Beautiful and very unique. Hope you had a nice Christmas Kala.
Thank you Evelyn, and yes I did.
