Good morning Peeps

I felt like posting a really simple straight forward shot today. More of a down to earth image without pretty flowers and stunning views.

This seat is positioned at our local country park and yes indeed it affords a wonderful view accross the water. However I wanted to capture the "real" scene at the time. Wet mud and roots on the waters edge, a sawn up piece of wood floating under the trees. Yet somehow it still looks and feels peaceful.. very relaxing.. So please feel free to take a seat, relax and catch up with your thoughts for a moment whilst listening to the birds singing.

No PP work here aside from a plain white frame.

Have a wondeful day peeps and a superb weekend

TTFN Regards Smurfie

Bonsoir Helen,
Quelle sérénité, quel calme semblent se dégager de cette scène très verdoyante!
Que faire? S'asseoir, s'asseoir et attendre, attendre le moment où les choses changent...
Merci de ce partage Helen!
Amicalement Odile:)
