"I wrote your name on a piece of paper but by accident I threw it away...
I wrote your name on my hand but it washed away...
I wrote your name in the
sand but the waves whisked it away....
I wrote your name in my heart and forever it will stay........."
Hello MIchael....what a very CLASSIC shot this is! The serene feeling of the man sitting on the bench totally engrossed in HIS view of all this beauty just reigns supreme here! The leaves under the tree in all those fantastic colours! IT is amazing, you are also an amazing photographer! The blue sky colour totally enhances the flaming of the tree, such gorgeous light on it...this photo could NOT have been any better!!10/10 Favs etc...smile
The colors and light and bright blue background are all wonderful. But what makes this one a ten for me is that the circle of fallen leaves from the tree almost seem like a pool of light effect, and that the man is sitting just on the edge of that pool
This reminds me of that airline commercial that follows the guy through his entire life until he ponders what he has become over the years. And I think there's somesort of trip or something involved at some point, but I digress. Nice work.
...Love the title. Love the frame and black backround. The blue background in the acutal picture is really awesome with the colours of the leaves and stuff.. verry good. Also how the elder man is sitting on the bench, great effect. Awesome image, 9*
Wow, I love this picture...it so captures the essence of fall...the man on the bench seems as if he is pondering life...its' beauty and its' conclusions...the shadows and blue in the distance further that mood...great composition...desktop and top marks.:Pat.
This is amazing! I love how the fire colored trees stand out against the cool blue sky and water. The lighting is amazing and the man sitting there really makes the picture unique... I love it! Awesome job once again! :)
Love the light as it falls on the ground under the tree. Love the blueish tint in the distance in the background. Love the gentleman sitting on the bench. I know he is enjoying this. Wonder what he is thinking as he appears to be in his later years? Grrrrrrrrreat capture.
Such poetic beauty! The colors are nothing short of perfect, the gold yellow and the blue in the back complements one another magnificently. Absolutely breath-taking, I can see why the gentleman sitting there. Thanks for sharing :)
