Great shot Bogdan, I disagree with the others, I think black and white is definietly more suitable for this picture although I haven't been in the area. Very sharp as well, which setting on the dial did you use on the A80?

I didn't even have to open this and recognized it instantly as Pointe Pelee. What a great place. I was just thinking about going there yesterday but didn't have the time. I love the capture of the path here and the nice bench indented into the reeds. Nice and sharply captured. I would love to see it in color rather than black and white, though, knowing the colors that can be captured there. But still beautifully composed.

Hi Bogdan. Nice composition. I really like the choice of B/W which probably helps as the sky is a touch over-exposed. Nicely seen. Don

Cette prise est très belle avec ce sujet principal positionné sur la place maîtresse de la photo.
J'aime bien comme le chemin nous fait filer au travers la photo.
Bravo Bogdan.

Wow, this picture is powerful for anyone who grew up in the area. I imagine children running, searching, delighted by animal sightings and the creak of the boards. So many Sunday afternoons were spent on the boardwalk marsh!

This empty bench implies a thousand times more life and imagery for me then if it showed just a single instance people or wildlife.

Love it!
