Oooh this is delightful!! Made me think of that scene in A Christmas Carol where Scrooge visited his past; the school where he grew up had a bridge and scence similar to this. Love this!!

The photo does not tell the back story that this was a very busy day in the Park. There were two "young mums" complete with toddlers, dogs, buggies, just to my left, a flock of ducks feasting on the bread thrown by said young mums and children, a couple of cyclists and a couple with another dog who had just walked over the bridge. A couple of seconds later and the frame was full of other people. So, this is one of those "decisive moment" pictures that Cartier-Bresson was always going on about, but nothing is apparently happening! I made a mess of of it though as thought I had given a lot of room to the girl so that I could crop down to what I wanted. In the event I hadn't and her foot is lost . The other thing, of course, is that this is an IR shot - so nice dark sky and "white" grass.
Cheers

LOL Wow, who would ever have known! Looks so calm and peaceful. lol
Well I'm sorry you misjudged. Not a good feeling when that happens. For what it's worth, I could care less about her; the image is stunning; 'she' got maybe a glance from me where my eyes visited the rest for much longer.

The IR gives this picture an incredible lighting, it's very interesting.

Many thanks for that. The IR aspect is partly responsible for the lighting - black sky and "white" grass etc.
