I think this is really quite lovely. It's not the flashiest shot here, very quiet and composed (pun intended), but certainly not diminished by any of that understatement. The pairing of the tree with the bench is very thoughtful, and the photograph works so much better with the bench empty. Just imagine a person sitting there ... the photograph would no longer be about the tree, whereas this way it unequivocally is; the bench is just a sidekick, but a sidekick that lends the tree both scale and purpose. I had it at 7 until it slowly dawned on me how very good it is, so now it's 9. Thanks for thinking. |
