This is a nice photo in composition and an effective use of B&W...unfortunately I dont see it as meeting the challenge. This is one child who sadly didn't have a full childhood, but not a representation of"childhood".

For those who asked how did I get this with no children...just lucky! First I took some pictures of it, with nothing working well because if you crop out the kids you crop out the swings. Then just as I was about to leave the park, I noticed it was half empty. Just at the right time I got a shot with all empty seats!
Couldnt crop out the trees because I would lose seats. Couldn't have more trees because there were stores below. Yes I had to saturate because the sky was a little dull, but I feel it added to the look of the photo.
Thanks for all the comments!

Nice use of grain and color(lack of). Effectively makes one feel that this is something out of their past. Interesting composition too. Good job. TG
