2012 Deck – Week 16


By The Manatee Pond

I’ve been staring at this photo for weeks, and finding the right words to accompany it in the blog seems to be hard…

It’s a great spot, it has the Kissing Bridge, popular with brides and lovers, photographers and kids who like to run over it back and forth.  The pond has the manatees, where kids come to feed them on afternoons, there are little spots where families picnic and relax, and it’s where budding artists sit and sketch simply because there is so much of interest around.

Does it have too much?  is the photo crowded?  Am I just being hard on myself?  Who knows….  but this is the photo for Week 16  🙂

    I think its a setting the scene photo, the opening paragraph to a story, follow it with photos of just the kissing bridge with the kiddies running back and to, or a couple intimately in conversation, the family picnic sights with Dad snoozing under the tree, while mom reads to young chilren…..

    It’s not too crowded. It’s perfect just the way it is. It’s absolutely surreal, so dreamlike it’s like you wish to join those people there and enjoy this beautiful paradise. It’s a wonderful shot, no doubt about it.
