This used to be a Playground

I walk past this playground just about every day. It's a bit sad and rundown now, the slide went first, then the swings were vandalised and never replaced, there's just the frames now. No kids use it to play in but a few teenagers from the local comp sit on top of the brick mound where the slide used to be.

Oh so sad :( I like the look of the slide mound - my kids would love climbing over that!!

that is sad. the b&w adds to the atmosphere too.

Sad little playground - no one to play with it! The b&w adds another layer of sadness.

The autumnal leaf fall and gradually denuding trees as well as the B&W really adds to the overall sadness of this.

This is a good capture of a negleted playground. Like a ghost of the past. Great editing.
