| It's weird, is it not (I refer to your Photographer's Comments)? I have that same fascination for what happens when you have no conscious preparation at all. It's the same old drum I have beaten for years: the photograph is much more than mere photography. I frequently make a memorable omelette without being conscious of being in the kitchen with a purpose. I also frequently make a hash of a meticulously-followed recipe that is all about cheffy-ness. Cooking is about memorable food. Photography is about photographs. That's why we love offhand omelettes like this. Thank you. |

I like elements of this shot, I like even the pastel effect but in its entirety I find it lacking something that would transport me "there".
I kept looking and thought that it was perhaps the reversed perspective of hues - now I know: I'd like the shadows to be more pronounced so that they'd support the bar of the swing and leave the man playing happily in a pool of light..

| This one has a light, airy look and feel that makes me think they are quite enjoying this return to their childhood. Never too old for a little fun - but just wait until one of them gets stuck and can't get out :) |

| Don, it's the child in your eyes. Never loose that. I always find drive by shots interesting with the blurred foreground. The white fence helps settle the eye where the action is. |

| There is definately a story unfolding here and I don't think it is going to end well. I love the roundabout - brings back good memories :) |

| I feel like there's trouble brewing - maybe the blue shirt guy is pursuing the other - sinister playground shenanigans |

| Are the colors desaturated? Maybe it's just the discordant scene of what look to be men climbing on the playground jungle. Is something dramatic going on here, or just something unusual? Why does it feel spooky? The tilt of the scene perhaps jangles inner emotions. I like the stippled, blurry chain fence that beautifully engages the maze of shadows. |

| I'd bet it's the shadows on the ground that caught your eye & imagination. Possibly the only safe way to photograph a child in a playground is while driving by, but the slight blur does it no harm. |
