I'm with you Hayward. Can't wait for Spring.

Beautiful capture of the morbid surroundings.

Yes, I think we're all on countdown with you Hayward. We'll look forward to your park updates when the weather warms up & that place fills with people.

Me three! I like the lines and patterns in the fence in this shot and the lack of people setting up that vacant, wintry mood.

Lovely--something is oddly inviting about it to me.

Hopefully spring will soon be sprung. I like the flash of red at the rear of the picture, draws you right in and then my eyes are drawn to the little glimpse of the flags. Nice one Hayward.

You and me both Hayward! I love the red roof and flag in the background; the nice hint of color lets us know that Spring is just around the corner. Lovely composition.
