Staying with the snow for a bit longer. This is one of the park benches.

It looked like someone had gone towards the seat to sit down but thought better of it. I liked the curve taken by the unseen visitor in the foreground matching the curve of the seat (and the pattern), and the man in the background moving off in the same curved direction. I saw him coming and waited for him. I also took a couple of shots of people wearing dark clothing but I preferred the white coat this time.

Thanks for looking yet again at pictures of the white stuff. Hope to get out soon and do something a bit useful.
Cheers, Chris Smile

PS: I've given it a mono tag as although the bench is technically green most of the image is mono (and our club rules do say that we can have one colour tone in an image and it's still classed as mono. And who am I to argue?) Wink

Lovely shapes and textures here Chris, and the muted colour is a bonus.

Really like the composition with the curve through the photo, and good for you for waiting for a person to complete the scene.

not so sure about the mono though Tongue

Great eyes.

I love the repetitive curves in this image. Thanks for pointing them out 'cos my mind's eyes have lost their game for a while now.
