Not much to say about this one, really.. Just quite liked the placement. It's right in the middle of a huge forest in Italy, and I don't remember seeing any other benches that day - one of a kind, almost.. :)
You placed the park bench nearly perfectly in the picture, not to close or to far away. Just right so that it brings out some depth. exellent job of making a good photograph out of a ordinary spot. Although it is quite pretty. this one goes to my favorites.
I agree with Proxima. Making an ordinary object interesting by changing perspective is one of the hardest things to do. I should know, I try to do it all the time, and I fail 9 times out of 10. But, you succeded here. Well done!

I agree with the others on this one, the perspective you given the bench is very inviting. A nice place to sit and take a rest. I like photos that welcome you into them.
This is such a good shot. I love the way the pictures makes you feel as though you are there, the greenery in the background stands out, I think this is a great picture!!
I had not seen this photo before, and I love bench photos!! I just posted one myself.. There is something so alone and ponderous about these type of pictures. I guess I think of myself sitting there just meditating quietly...take a look at mine when you can ok? and thans for this lovely shot....Verena
Hey I really like your photo! I think that you named it perfectly. I love how you can see alot of the path.. almost like a place to think before continuing with life. Love it and into my faves!!
