Challenge: Decisions (Basic Editing III)
Camera: Olympus C-2Z
Lens: Pentax FA 28-70mm f/4.0 AL AF
Location: Shizuoka, Japan
Date: May 28, 2005
Aperture: 4
ISO: 200
Shutter: 1/750
Date Uploaded: May 31, 2005

 The sun just setting cast a wonderful orange over this lookout into a protected marsh-land in Japan. The two benches both offered a relaxing, inviting, nourishing space in which to rejuvenate. Unfortunately, I was too busy taking the picture to enjoy actually sitting there, but I did enjoy the experience of taking the picture. It actually feels as if I did relax on one of those benches. Perhaps taking the picture gives our minds a dose of the theme of any given picture...

Very peaceful and serene. Decisions to visit places like this really do fill your cup up. A nice and different way to meet the challenge. Good lighting, and interesting angle. Top 5.

I don't feel that the image conveys instantly recognizable decision. Good try, good pic.

I think this is a lovely photo, but I have a hard time connecting it with a decision.

Decision? Looking at this image I see no decision. Decision should be represented by the picture itself....not just in the title.

A very pretty shot, but I don't really think it fits the challenge I'm afraid :(
