...and the path leading away through the frame is very effective. Like this.

Perfect composition. I wonder if you did this the way I sometimes do street photography, where you spot the scene and then lurk until the right figure or figures walk on stage.

Great compo, three trees,three black elements, the wooden bench and the position of the diverging paths, all make this a very nice and effective mono photo. I love it! What was the high point that you were standing on, Andrew?

Thanks everyone. Shot in RAW at high ISO, then processed using Neat Image and Photoshop. Just a slight hint of blue to make it silvery.

Yes, exactly like that, David. Long focus lens. Spotted the pattern of paths first and took one shot but felt it needed some scale and interest. So waited a bit...

nezih, I'm really lucky to live near a park laid out by the Victorians with lots of paths, dips and rises, built on a hillside. I was simply on a higher path, part of my daily walk.
Best wishes,

Andrew
