Vernon Park Walker by phil_howcroft

Vernon Park Walker

Spotted on my lunch time walk

A lone man with his carrier bag walking along the "tree lined avenue"

Vernon Park, Basford is set in a very industrial / built up area of the city and is a green oasis in a very urban environment

Converted to mono in Rawtherapee and then some faffing around with borders in GIMP.

Great b&w

Very nice in b&w, like your pov, and the long thin shadows!

Like the wide avenue!!

It's a sign. That guy is an international spy and the carrier bag contains his sandwiches. Some things he can't hide. Well done for spotting him. :)

Fav. There is something lonely yet comforting in these shots. I am always on the look out for avenues of trees.

Gorgeous tree line! The shadows across the walkway are nice as well as the b&w I love how the branches seem to sparkle. Great comp.

Beautiful! I'd like to see a cop to below his feet to give a sharper aspect. Love it in mono.
