Photo Hunt #51: Ripples


IMG_0919, originally uploaded by M'roy.

I told myself, finally a theme that I found easy. Easy because I don't have to do any thinking at all. I have taken a number of water-related images that would certainly qualify for the theme.

Here's my entry for today, a shot of boaters at the pond in Central Park.

Wonderful photo. So peaceful and romantic (even if it does look like she is talking on her cell, LOL).

I think I'm going to love the theme this weekend!

Photo Cache said...

@ ANNIE -- I found that queer too, she does appear to be talking on the cell. Leave the cell and concentrate on the moment :)

Carver said...

The row boat on the river looks very inviting.

John said...

Nice shot! It's fun rowing on that lake, though the water does get a bit crowded at times.

Greyscale Territory said...

Rowing around peaceful waters is a great way to spend time! At least the guy in the photo looks as if he is in the moment! Quite strange about the girl being on a cellphone!

We humans seem to respond to "water" very favorably in life and in our pictures. This photo today is a good example. It is so appealing to think of boating in Central Park. A fine picture.

I like how you composed the picture - the boat and couple in the front with a bit of mystery, the framing branches and then the destination in the distance. Nice job.

Colin Campbell said...

Very tranquil.

Ohhhh, I love this shot. You mention that your photos are just 'ordinary', but I think they are marvellous.

They catch life as it happens.....
