is that a buffalo running through the park? those folks should run!
this is VERY interesting. I can't wait to hear about it!

culberda said 410 days ago:

Ana... that's certainly a comment I didn't expect and got quite a chuckle out of it. I'm not sure where you're seeing the buffalo... there is a ragged sort of fellow bent over picking up change by the bandstand/fountain--is that what you mean?

This image is from Kings Square, a small urban green space in my town. The central structure is a very old bandstand. The blowing out white towards one corner is entirely the result of dense fog--another very common site in my neighborhood.

Looks radioactive. A two-story gazebo with no stairs? Is there an elevator? Am I mistaken?

I guess this is a foggy day. For me, the brightness at the top of the image is unfortunate. I don't know how I would have gotten to the final image, but I think I would have attempted to create darker tones at the top of the image.

However, it does set this apart and make it look different. Maybe this is best.

Hi King, I appreciate your comments. There are no stairs, it's true. There would have been at one time, but I assume they had problems with people sleeping up there and/or jumping and such.

Ana said 410 days ago:

I was wondering about the stairs also! Good to know that I wasn't imagining the lack of stairs, like I did the buffalo. : )
After looking at this image later, I realized it was someone stooping...

This has a very dreamlike quality to it. It seems very old, but I can tell it's a modern photograph. It's almost as if you've created a fairytale in your neighborhood park.
