Loving pic 2, what a great reflection
Wish you had managed to get the top of the building in the reflection

It would have been nice to get the whole building in, but I'd have needed a ladder. What you can't see is that the shoreline sits right at the bottom of the pic, in fact, i had to clone some nettles out to get that much
Getting there! Thanks to you guys

Nice set.
No 3, for me, the reflection of the weeping tree etc, caught with just the right water movement, creating an oil painting effect, shame the ducks wake, cut the reflection.
Looks like a very tranquil place.
Take care.

It can be a tranquil place, yet where it is borders on to a dump full of yobs / scallies / chavs!
The park was left to go to ruin years ago, but the council were shamed into putting it straight and looking after it again ( it is the first public park in the world and the inspiration for New York Central Park ). Since then it has been well looked after and can be a nice place.

The light was lovely when I first arrived, but it clouded over quite quickly.
Here are some of my shots. C&C welcome.
