Mmm, had such a bad year photo wise, really not motivated and I can't put my finger on the reasons why. I bought a new camera (7D) and two new lenses but I still stuggle to find my mojo.
Not much done to it apart from the usual usm, resize and some HDR work.
The Free Studies are hard and I know that the best of are even harder so not expecting anything much.

Hi Mike,
First of all, good shot and nice processing. I remember during voting I scrolled the screen up to hide the shop fronts and just leave the bench in view.
Reading in your comments about your 'mojo' I wondered if you were a member of a local camera club. I am and there are some people there who would suggest making a whole series of pictures about that wavy seat in your picture. For instance, one-a-week showing different styles, techniques and perspectives; and/or the changing seasons, weather and the different types people who make use of it. But that's camera clubs for you!
