Summer's Over Too Soon

Description

"Winter's so cold, summer's over too soon
Let's pack our bags and settle down where palm trees grow

I've got some friends, some that I hardly know
we've had some times, I wouldn't trade for the world
We chase these days down with talks of the places that we will go

We live on front porches and swing life away,
We get by just fine here on minimum wage
If love is a labor I'll slave till the end,
I won't cross these streets until you hold my hand..."
Swing Life Away -Rise Against :music: :sing:

Taken at the beach park in Manistee, Michigan.

***edit -played with the contrast and colors a bit in Gimp as suggested by the Critiquer =)


Another photo I've taken of a swingset: [link]

I really like the perspective that you captured! I can't think of anything besides maybe a little bit more editing. The colors could be a little more vivid and adjust the brightness either way by a couple points. Possibly play with the highlights and shadows a bit more. The only thing that I could think of that would make the picture better would be if you would have had the luck of having a bird or two fly into frame as you took the photo.

But really, if you do decide to play with the editing a little more and don't like it. Leave it as is. It's a good one. <img src="e.deviantart.net/emoticons/s/s…" width="15" height="15" alt=":)" title=":) (Smile)"/>
