I wouldn't want to jump off those swings. Lots of small rocks to break my fall. Ouch. Good shot though. 6.

Grainy shot - makes it interesting, makes the blue swings stand out from the rocks... Rocks in a playground=lawsuit waiting to happen...

Nice lines and lovely colours - good composition and no distracting background objects. Something about the gravel is making my eyes hurt and it's too intrusive for me.

Nice line-up but I wish it could have been cropped without the swing set legs showing. =7 syamjonimi ;'-D

There's another picture of a swing, but my comment there was that the first swing wasn't in shot completely, here it is! So like this picture better.
Especially since the object is centered! Well done !

There's another shot in this challenge similar in style, but different in color. I like this shot and the strong blue. I counted off a bit for the color bleed in the rocks near the middle and top.

I like the way you've lined the swings up.
