These are the seats at the Maumee Bay State Park Amphitheater, built into the side of a hill.

Thanks for the comments.

A striking image. These empty seat speak volumes louder than if they had been full. Well done!

This is cool. I like the way the clouds look like they are swirling around the blue sky.

Must not be anything going on or these seats would be filled up would they not? I like the curved seating and the lovely sky. How would you like mowing those strips of grass? Nice capture.

I really love the curved balance on this....I think it could do without the frame....but that's just me. I usually love your framing, but this one seems to take away a bit. Still a stunning capture and very original.

My computer went belly up and I won't have a new one until Friday. I apologize for using a canned comment but the monitor on this laptop makes every thing look dull.

I pride myself on the personal evaluations of each photo on which I leave comments. For now please accept my apology because faulty equipment make it impossible to leave a fair critique.

Get used to this disclaimer because it will be the one I use to let you know I have viewed you latest post. I won't be posting until I recover my files and load them on the new computer.

Jim - This greek theater-style is interesting, especially with the grass seats. Set against the sky, it makes a nice scene that you have captured well. Thad

Yes I have to agree, I like the angle you have taken this one from. We still have a few of these here in Australia. Lyn.

A photograph is a memory in the raw. I will always treasure mine.
