Memories On The Bench

Adjacent to a nursing home. It seemed that some one tied this ribbon on this bench as a reminder of a departed loved one. Sad but beautiful.

Hi,
What a nice pictures you've got here, and all of them have a sense of darkness (including your blog theme!)
The picture you've asked for is taken inside the famous inversed U shape monument in Paris (called Arc de Triomphe). See you more...

A very poignant story; the pp work you did to desat and affix the red ribbon's color within is eye-catching.
