Description
Nothing is more rewarding than to sit in the shade, let the wind stroke your face and contemplate other people's problems, and while you feel the deep sense of grief and loss for others, your life will always seem to smile upon you.

That's cynicism, and it's the basic rule of getting perspective on life.
After all, you need some cynicism to be optimistic going through life knowing death is coming your way, no matter what you do.

Volfson park in Ramat Gan.
Sigma 10-20mm + Infra Red filter (Hoya R72).
I wanted the low angle to clear the back frame of all the houses behind that small hill. It worked.

The tree looks so confident.. All the stories told on the benches through time.. Even the sky stands behind it.

The colours are great.. I really like this piece.

I love this it is beautiful, and I like how you sigled out the tree and make it sit between two benches, it has a very strong, nice use of filter. It really makes the picture stand out. I really like your taste very unique.
