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.

    I think you've developed an audience who would enjoy looking at them.

    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.
