Park Scene
This is Lincoln Park about a week ago, with still a lot of yellow in her early leaves. As far as parks go, it's not large and meandering but interesting with angled walkways, stone pillars, black iron fencing all around, benches about, a stone water fountain for cooling off in the summer heat and plenty of shady trees. No wonder it's a pretty popular environment for small fairs and festivals and the like. On early mornings like this one, you've pretty much got it to yourself. You can stop by, grab a bench and watch and listen to a city waking up. It's a good thing to do!

And would there be a cup of coffee by your side?
ReplyDeleteI love watching and listening to a city wake up (if I wake up in time to do so).
ReplyDeleteLooks like a scene from a movie. Love the quietness in the photo :D
ReplyDeleteWhat a wonderful idea!
ReplyDeleteYou talked me into it!
ReplyDeleteI would love to be sitting on one of those benches right about now.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful, Birdman!
ReplyDeleteI imagine romances beginning there too...
ReplyDeleteNice shot - great perspective!
ReplyDeleteI agree with you. There is something special about being in a park early when you can have it all to yourself. Lovely photo
ReplyDeleteBises,

Beautiful shot!
ReplyDeleteSound like a good way to start the day.
ReplyDeleteOkay, I am going to get up earlier tomorrow. I really am. Really.
ReplyDeleteWhat a charming place and idea. Wherever you live, there is probably some place to do this. You have to be able to get up and out early to enjoy the solitary pleasures of the beginning of the day. Not all of us have such self-discipline.
ReplyDeleteThis looks like such a nice, quiet spot. I could use that!
ReplyDeleteLooks like a fab place to sit and ponder the day ahead, or the day past!
ReplyDeleteIt does look like a pretty place to sit for a bit.
