Took a Walk downtown this afternoon and made a few observations. I just get in this mood sometimes.

I really like the first one, but the bench REALLY needs someone sitting on it, especially an old man/lady/couple.

You have a fine eye for shapes and lines and you are developing your own style with these images.
Well done, I dig the whole set...w/ shot 1 being my fave.

Thanks all for the comments. I agree AT, that a person or persons would make a good photo. But not better. Someone on the bench would be the center of attraction and would lessen the the presence of the other elements in the picture. The colors, details, horizontal and vertical lines, the bench itself and even the poor paint job would would of second intrest, if any at all, in the photo. The primary intrest would be of the people. Yes, people on the bench would be a good photo and I would have snapped the shot, but they are not REALLY needed to make an interesting image here. Like the saying I've heard so much "sometimes less is more"...... of course this is all just IMO, so take it just as that. Thanks for your comments, I appreciate it.
