Park Bench

Sometimes I think I could walk around all day long, taking pictures of people in parks.

Come to think of it, I do.

This is Bushnell Park, in downtown Hartford.

Communities are so smart to include parks in a downtown area. No matter where you go, people are endlessly terrific for portraits and snapshots.

There's room on that bench for me to rest in the sunshine.

I do so enjoy your people shops, Jack, and you're very good at catching them! You can keep it up as far as I'm concerned! Have a great day -- well what's left of it!!

Nice work Jack, this is the kind of image I'm going to enjoy a lot I hope, to compensate for the poopy weather here in Perth!

Just catching up... You got some great portraits recently. I like these candids too - reminds me how nice it is to sit and 'do nothing' for a while.

You could do much worse. Most of the time people are at their most pleasant in parks.

Randy said...

What a great way to spend the day.

Nice to see they are relaxing and not on electronic devices!
