  Looks like a wonderful park. It reminds me of a place not far from here by the name of Conneaut Lake.

    Hi ann. This is one of Lucy’s favorite places, mainly ’cause it has an adjoining dog park. It used to be army property.

    Thanks, drjay. Not sure if b&w was right for this, but it felt right. Still, felt better than it looks, I think.

  A bit dark and mysterious yet hauntingly inviting. Very nice.

    Thanks, Joanne. Yeah, the b&w did make quite a difference from the original. Not necessarily better, though…

    Thanks, Bossy Betty. Ha…those purple flowers are biding their time until I offer up ads. But who knows…those flowers may be there for the rest of this blog’s days!

    Thanks, Grace. Yeah, I like those shadows, too, although I’m still questioning the choice of b&w. It sure does look eerie, though.

  It’s like a scene from a BW horror movie. And I don’t mean that in a bad way. It’s very beautiful, serene, and kinda sad.

    Thanks, Ashley. B&w kinda gives this a Hitchcock-ish look, I think. Glad you like it and thanks for stopping by to comment.
