Vacancy

Taken early morning two weekends ago, the usually bustling Streamway Parks was void of peope altogether (except this photographer) after an icy covering the night before. Converted this to B/W to emphasize the cold, dreary day that this was.

Freezing rain, sleet & snow all day today in KC! Merry Christmas everyone!

Wayne, I think you've conveyed the cold, dreary feeling well with the B/W conversion here. It looks like this weekend maybe a repeat. Nice to see that most of the trees were spared from the ice.

Merry Christmas to you too!

This photo certainly exudes a lonely and cold feeling. The tree and bench balance each other nicely around the centrally located path, which gives the impression of movement and a place to go. Very nice!

Merry Christmas, Wayne.

I really like this, it feels just like today. Even though it's cold and monochromatic, the path gives you a sense of hope and discovery
I hope the sun comes out tomorrow!!

Wayne I love the ice on the trees, the path and fence lead you right into the image. Great job on the frame also,very nice. We haven't gotten any snow or ice. I really want to get some winter images this season.

Good job, Wayne. The park bench, with its pristine covering of snow, is such a telling piece of the composition.

Merry Christmas!

Wayne, I agree with everyone else. The shot conveys the cold and weather that you have experienced lately. Thanks for sharing.

Brrrrr..., leave it to us photographers to be the only fools out in the ice and snow :)--well done, Wayne
