 My first attempt at the empty bench genre.

Taken at one of the local Metroparks. Although there were a few footprints along the paths, it was clear to me that the benches were closed for the season (not in use). I predict this will end up in the 5.6 - 5.7 range, as it doesn't have that DPC wow factor.
