I could sit on that bench all day. This is reminiscent of the Lakes or Scotland - very calming. Challenge wise this presents the method of passing time rather than actually passing time per se. Still, it's a picked nit and I love the shot.
This is beautiful - almost 3D. The mountains, blue sky, and bench almost jump out of the screen. I just wrote in another comment that I'd like to see a real person in their entry, but in yours, it's so easy to imagine a real person sitting on that bench that I'm can't rightfully take anything away from the score for not having a person. (I learned something about the way I look at these images just now - cool!)
great photo, i like how soft the mountains and sky are, and that there's no one on the bench, it helps draw me into the photograph. i'm not sure about the wood in the water, but it does add some interest, i'm just not sure if it's too distracting.
looks like you were having a good/bad weather day. nice find. might have been made more powerful if there had been someone sitting in the bench doing some reflection.
