Sit Down and Relax


Yes, I do have a love of Benches!
There are so many benches at Bissett Park... 
Maybe they are inviting you to ....
"Sit down and relax...... enjoy the view "

You know, I have never shot a picture of a bench. Don't know why. I have a real passion for them.

Great shot.

Looks like a real nice place to walk and then to sit... for a long time, and watch the trees, and the river, and the grass... sigh
Thanks,
Wayne

They look so lonely.

I love the curving tree over the bench.

A combination of phototropism and gravitropism, I would guess.

I'd love to walk on that trail. The benches look very inviting.

I also love taking pics of benches...hubby always laughs at me (he obviously doesn't 'get' it, lol) but there's just something interesting about an empty bench!!

May I sit there for a moment? Just to watch the beauty within.

Happyone said...

More nice bench shots. Everytime I see a bench now I think of you. :-)

Nice pics esp the B/W.

Willard said...

Good shots. I really like the one with the tree curving over the bench.

Nice work Kerri. I especially like the second one. I does make me feel sad though. I guess its all the greys and browns. The setting and composition are great and I love benches too, but like Steve I don't do them often.

Andrea said...

The benches look inviting. Looks like a nice place to relax and enjoy nature.

I pass them and always think what great still life shots! Your photos are wonderful!! Love meeting new nature lovers...thank you for stopping by my ~Snow Roses!~ :)NG

:) Oh, it is! Lovely place even in the winter. What a difference it makes to have a bench, it does make you feel welcome and want to linger a bit.

As nature goes, it's lovely. But looks a little too lonely!

very beautiful capture, very beautiful place. so peaceful

gaz said...

love the second shot - the effect of draining the colour works really well, makes it look as if it's been grabbed from a dream sequence!

MedaM said...

I like that idea of comparing the same places in different time or seasons. I too like benches. There is some special and romantic in them. They cannot talk, but if they could… :-))

Paulie said...

I love the benches! The teeny first one reminds me of how lonely it is now that the days are getting colder in fall and not many stop to just sit and watch. You "framed" the 2nd one beautifully with that tree branch.

Worldwide1 said...

yes,I too enjoy Benches,and this shot is surely lovely.

Thanks for sharing such a wonderful view.

Andromeda Jazmon said...

I love your themes. Trees are endlessly fascinating, aren't they?

Chica, Cienna, and Cali said...

the second pic is totally a keeper, Kerri...it's classic

John Roberts said...

Both these benches looks so lonely. I hope you gave them some company for a few minutes.

Holly said...

I love the way the tree is curving over the bench. It looks like a wonderful place to sit!
