Benches

 

I visited the library to renew Emma and took a walk around the nearby park afterwards. I brought a small camera with me and, in an effort to overcome my photographic slump, gave myself some limitations to see if they might help me discover some new perspectives in a place I've visited many times. I set my camera to Neutral Picture Control, turned the zoom ring to the standard focal length (50mm equivalent on full frame), and tried to find simple compositions. I didn't make many pictures and most of them got deleted, but I was pleased with these two. The lines are pretty good and the overcast weather removed distracting shadows and provided muted colours.
