Park Bench

Uploaded: November 29, 2012 03:55:30

Description

A bench wrapped around the base of a park statue in Reykjavik; I liked the lines of the wood slats, particularly
where they met diagonally at the corner, combined with the joints of the pavers on the ground below.
The round screw heads created another set of lines, and the faded blue graffiti and traces of old red paint
added a bit of color to the browns;
I stood on the bench aiming straight down, balancing carefully to get my feet out of the shot ;)
