 SEP2 Triste 2

Thanks to posthumous for a place in the fantasy art gallery, & thanks for the votes & the comments. "D I've taken many pictures of these 2 benches over time, looking for a good comp. On this morning they were being soaked by a big lawn sprinkler, & I liked the wet effect. The PP added to it, so I kept it.

The grainy-ness adds to the 'old' effect.

I really like the soft contrast here. Glad you didn't try to crank up the volume on this one, as it would have disturbed the quietness that you so wonderfully captured.

Doesn't have enough tonal range for me, lots of grey without the highlights and deep shadows to make it pop a little.

Looks like a cozy corner for sitting a while; however, it looks like it is raining. The grain does add a "yester year" feel to it. (voted earlier)

Has the look of a very old photo with not much interest to me.
