okay the first word that comes to mind is: abandonment. or a broken childhood's dream.
anyway, i really like that the swing is the only sharp element here. a playground normally stands for joy and amusement and you managed it to turn its normal sense around. very nice.

No more children

All of the children are gone, leaving the playgrounds empty and lonely and sad.

That's the very first thing that came to my mind. I don't know why the children are gone, though

Great Job.

I think of a little boy swinging on the swings. He has his legs crossed and he's looking down. So innocent.

That was my first thought.

I like it a lot, but I think I would have liked it a little better if it were of higher contrast. Still great, though!

K-Kaito [2007-02-17 13:01:21 +0000 UTC]

Loneliness.
That's what comes to mind.
The grey tones make the 'sad' feeling even stronger.
Abandoned would be the 2nd word that comes to mind.

linkf1 [2007-02-16 13:08:46 +0000 UTC]

Great in concept, but I think that the background is a bit too distracting to really make you focus on the swing.

Wohmatak In reply to linkf1 [2007-02-16 15:54:33 +0000 UTC]

Well, that's not necessarily negative the rest of the playground in gives it conceptual depth, I didn't want a simple swing shot

Very nice shot! The only thing I would have changed is the ladder (or what ever it is) in the background because it's in the middle of the swing

Reminds me on the playground we have around here and how we went there in the night and started to be like kids again. That was fun.

Well okay...there is also a sad component, because know i am seperated from that person, but that is life

time to study instead of play. reminds me of a playground at an elementary school, but all the kids are inside learning instead of outside playing.

i'm not sure, just the tones, and the swing.. it's a lonesome feeling that reminds me of death.
not sure why, i'm a strange person i suppose. it's a very interesting image. :]

That's it, through experiences like this you can get to know yourself It's quite similar to thematic aperception test ( [link] ), it's really interesting how different people project themselves into simple pictures and how different their thoughts or eventually stories are
