Default Tree Swinger?

Here are a couple more shots from my recent fall photography shoot at a local park. What do you think? I'm thinking that on the second photo I should have angled it so the swing in the background didn't show...

Two lovely photograhs to show the new season Shelley. Nice use of black and white in the first one to show the lovely textures and a nice angle to show the gorgeous Autumn colours in the second one. This is very nice work Shelley. You did a great job.

Dave.

I like them both but I keep holding my hand over the second swing, trying to decide and I can't. I think I will just send you back again to take the shot the other way so we can see which way we like it best. Off you go now.......

Thank you both

I think, maybe, with the second swing in the photo it kind of adds to the lonliness of the place - it's fall, time for school so there are no kids around to use it...I dunno, just making excuses I guess, LOL
