Get a move on Bob! Anita has reserved this seat especially for you! I have to say that is the most beautifully composed invitation I have seen - I can even see the reserved sign! lol! lovely Anita - especially with the plants in the foreground - the whole picture is framed really well with the foliage and the outer frame.

What could I possibly add to all the fine comments that have gone before me? I guess I could add that the vertical fronds in the foreground do a lovely job of providing a natural frame in addition to the one you've added already. I like the extra texture provided by the stones alongside the greenery in the front on the left. And I'm also enjoying the spashes of red that the little blossoms on the right add to this take. The tree off to the right in the background is a most one appealing with its differing shades of browns, and the rounded angles of the stone retaining walls scattered here and there for their various purposes add yet another enjoyable texture to this serene scene where I'm pleased to read that we might be able to find Bob...I swear he's going to have to leave bread crumbs for us to figure out which seat he's taking his nap on by the time we're all through providing him places of rest !!! Nicely presented :)PJ
You're not just whistling dixie, this is a gorgeous spot to sit and take a load off. Just what Bob is good at. Very lovely image, Anita. It must have been a really great place to visit.
I'm going to hang myself.....another place for owd Bowb to sit. You guys are just killing him pampering him so much. Skuze me while I go toss my lunch. Oh....nice shot Anita....*mumble mumble*

Well, Anita. I know I'm coming late to the party if Bob has been here and tried it out already. I enjoy the gentle lighting, beautiful greens. The frame is extra special, too. Thanks for sharing.
This is so great Anita, A great place for Bob to sit and relax, it is so funny how many bench photos are dedicated to him. I love all thee green and the frame.
What a great find - this is perfect for Bob :) Such beautiful surroundings. Excellent composition and clarity. I like that rock garden & the lovely plants. All the greenery is fabulous - must have alot of birds in those trees. The green frame fits this perfectly. Truely a peaceful mood to this - very good image, Anita :^>
