Cromwell, Connecticut, USA. Several rain storms and spring melt off from the mountains to the north have brought annual moderate flooding of the Connecticut River, making these park benches a bit uncomfortable. Enjoy!

Really shimmering greens and blues, Thad. Interesting cloud formation too. Great composition.

That's a great shot, Thad. Beautiful colors, and composition. I like that gazebo, but I don't think I will wade out to it, or the benches.

Definitely not the place for a sit down get to know you meeting. A wonderful looking photo Thad. Love the bright colours in your scene and an interesting sky. Very nicely done.

Love the vibrant blues and greens. What a great place to strap on your snorkel and take your picnic basket.

I really enjoy your landscape indeed.
It seems that you have used HDR for this picture. Don't you?

I suppose those benches would be a great asset for a fly fisherman right now...Nice presentation...

I agree with Bob, it doesn´t look like a great place to sit on the benches right now, but I do think it must be when the water level goes back to normal. I like the gazebo. Very nice shot!

Oh what a marvelous place and looks so very relaxing Thad, gorgeous colours, but I don't think I'll sit on the benches though

Well Thad...your pant legs might get wet on the way over...but looks as though your seat will still stay dry once there...lol! Fantastic show of the high water level
