Too early to rest by peterdegraaff

Too early to rest

...in the morning, Shellharbour.

Chinon CM-4S
Fuji Superia 100ASA

@jsw0109 for get pushed said "I think what I'd like to see you do is think of something you pass, use, or interact with on a regular basis that you would never think to photograph and find a way to photograph it in a way that is interesting and/or beautiful."

I walk past this bench on my early morning walk. It is usually empty: perhaps a cliche.

Stop and rest a while, before I am taken away through lack of use.

Beautiful scene!

Nice one. All the strong diagonal lines are parallel, except the breakwater, and the only horizontal line is the horizon which, at the top, doesn't interfere with any of the others. Beautifully composed.

That is like asking you to take a pictures of a painting your pass and you happen to walk by the Mona Lisa! I call shenanigans! Get the brooms!

@rockinrobyn Hah. Just finished helping Melody clean up the horses paddock where they are agisted as she was on night shift. This means picking up horse manure, cleaning out the shed, checking their water, etc. now a quiet moment on 365 before heading off to get some film developed. Comforting, but hard yakka!

Hard to slow down and use benches isn't it? Lovely place to do it though! Thanks for sharing it with us

This has a great vintage feel. I love the peaceful view out to sea.
November 17th, 2012  
Wonderful Peter, serene, love the colours here, a hint of vintage. Like it a lot.
November 17th, 2012  
I think this is lovely - and what a view. I can't imagine passing it without sitting down to admire the view - but then it's not something I see everyday. Is there a challenge you can't do?! :)
November 17th, 2012  
Some view. Nice spot to think.
November 17th, 2012  
Sweet! Love the shadow.
November 17th, 2012  
No one sits there in the morning? Think of all the beautiful sunrises that have been missed! Nice shot Peter.
