You have nailed MY childhood completely with this photo. Great muted colors. I think the only suggestion that I could make is the composition might be stronger if you moved to the side a little so the swing was not directly in the center of the photograph. 7 BAMartin

Nice composition. I would have loved to see this in b&w. I think it would have given a more nostalgic feel. The green is so vibrant that it almost distracts from the swing. I think I would have tried to crop out the hot sky in the upper left hand corner. Great image.

What a lovely photo! This looks like one of those so-called "idyllic" settings. That's an amazing tree. I love the whole "feel" of the shot. lhall

Well, well. We have almost the same picture in this challenge. But I have to admit, I like yours very much. I was looking for this kind of a tree as well, but you found it. And I like the park scenery in the background. Congratulations.

Where do you find all these great swings?! Wonderful green grass and gnarly tree. Looks like something from a movie set.

Nice picture, i wonder what i looked like if it were in B&W.
I think B&W pictures are more suited for this challenge, although i like the "emptiness" in the background, just a tree and a swing. Nothing disturbing.

I really love this photo. the grass is a really great green and the trees are a beautiful contrast. The lighting was great for this photo. my only lighting concern would be in the upper left corner where the bright spot kind of washes away the tops of the trees right there. This is an absolutely beautiful tree. This photo is in my top 10. Great job and good luck in the challenge.
