I remember looking at this photo during the challenge and thinking in my head, "MAN! If the sky wasn't so blown out this would be great!" Your whole setup is really appealing. The bench in the corner, the leaves from the trees framing the top of the photo, and a water relection.

The empty bench represents a since of absence--hence your title-Missing You. PERFECT SETUP. The problem I see with this photo is the lighting and that is it. Maybe if you shot this at a different time of day, or played with levels and contrast some? The sky needs more interest. If the sky had more punch with maybe some clouds that would be refected in the water that would really be beautiful.

I like the framing & comp, seems it was shot when the sun was fairly strong hence the colors are slightly washed out. The feeling really comes through though.

The lonely bench certainly denotes the category you chose. The boughs hanging over the bench help to frame it nicely. I wish the sky were a richer color, but the composition and reflection is nice.

I think this shot is quite good, but for some reason the tree branch hanging down in the middle bothers me. Overall a nice shot.

I think that I would have edited out the building on the left. Takes the attention away from the bench and the water.
