Three Benches

 Bench in dappled shade

Look closely and you can see snow on this bench's seat. No footprints either. No one has been sitting here in the shade for a while.

 Bench under a greenhouse frame

No one has been sitting on this bench either. There are tons of shadows though resting below the frames.

Bench on the ice on Lake Simcoe

It may actually be on the edge of a dock. I can't tell as I used a telephoto lens to take this photo. There is a hole in the ice and some open water. I'm not sure what that's all about. There is also an extension cord and a plug on the bench and I have no clue what that's for either. Anyone have any ideas?

I am linking to Shadow Shot Sunday 2 HERE.

  3. Number 2 and 3 are my favourites. The second shot is like something from a space movie!

  4. I agree with Ciel, number 2 is my favourite,but here are so many angles plus light and shade..

  5. I think someone could have been ice fishing! My favorite bench is the pretty last one.

  6. I love to take pics of benches. Yours are good. I have no idea about the extension cords. I could sure invent a story though.

  9. I like the one under the tree the best - as long as it were Summer where the cooling shade that might be more appreciated - then!

  11. Have no clue about the electric cord, but I sure would love to know! I bet it would be cold sitting there!

  12. Strange about the cord, great bench shots!

  13. These are awesome photos, but I haven't got the faintest clue why there would be an electrical cord there, Tina! You gonna need Columbo for that :)

    Have a Beautiful Day!
    Peace :)

  14. Beautiful benches in sunshine :)
    Like the second one because of the many shadow lines and I think the plug is for someones heating blanket :)))
    Have a beautiful Sunday!

  15. I love the bench in the second photo (as well as the photo itself) but haven't a clue about the electric cord.

    Perhaps it's just there for the shock value? hehe

  16. I love that second shot! The extension cord? That's to plug in the portable space heater! If you're going to sit here you may as well be comfortable, right?

  17. Such beautiful shadow patterns. Love Kay's answer about the space heater, but I would add a double adapter and have some music too.

  18. All three waiting for better weather!

  19. I agree with Kate, three nice pictures !

  20. a heated bench? that is odd to have the cord there.. maybe someone sat on it and used and electric blanket? can you tell i am reaching way out for the explanation? those shadows are so pretty

  21. Beautifully structured photos, EG. I am ready for the snow to go, though!
    It could be a dock bubbler, and they can't get the extension out. Lovely mystery!

  22. The second bench seems so forlorn with all that snow!

  23. Quite different, but equally cold!

  24. love these! at first, I thought the greenhouse frame was monkey bars!

  25. There is something so mystifying in a bench, I like shooting them too. All of these are great captures.

    ReplyDelete
  26. I like all three shots for different reasons but you would not catch me sitting on the last one. I think it might disappear!!

    ReplyDelete
  27. Although I am not an ice fisherman, would there ever be a reason to use a cord near water?!?!? That would be very odd!!!!...:)JP

  28. Quite intriguing... The bench is on the shore of the lake? so close to the water, indeed... not a clue... Interesting vision of the 3 benches...
    Have a sunny and happy week of March!

  29. Sounds like ice fishing, but I'm no expert. I've never been ice fishing. Love the photos.
