Description
A little park in the middle of my home town that has a sign, "Union Park...1871". It isn't big but with three benches around a fountain, what else do you need for a quiet moment?
Got the idea of photographing this little gem from a poem and photo posted by Marilyn (beachzz) on the 27th of March by the title of "Pocket of Peace".
Thanks for stopping by,
Bill:)
ZOOM for sure!

Wonderful scene. Great mood created by the combination of spring trees and long shadows.
So very serene. Great pov and composition!
So beautiful! It's interesting that even if I didn't know, I should expect this to be in the US not Europe...something to do with the picket fence, and the style of house I expect!
Such a beautiful place awesome color and light, beautifully captured!!!!
Wonderful, Bill. Dk has it right about Spring colors and long shadows. Also I notice how the blooming dogwood almost "echoes" the handsome white house.
Looks like an awesome place to sit on a summer's day....
Very beautiful place....looks so peaceful!:-)
Beautiful rest. Can I wonder why some of the bricks are on their sides with holes to the air? Excellent photo.
Wonderful image Bill, I'd love to sit here and reflect!
very beautiful place!! Great capture and POV!
Beautiful area and wonderful capture. I can see peaceful surroundings, sitting on the bench, a good book, the sound of the fountain, cool breeze, sweet smell of the flowers, Yawn, Zzzzzzz.
A GREAT, PEACEFUL PLACE! i like the effect of the shadows of the trees on the tiled pavement!!!

Bill this is wonderful. Great composition and a great subject. I could spend a day on that bench with a good boat and thermos of coffee. Maybe a couple of sandwiches too.

What a lovely place to sit and relax. I'll be right there! :)
Crisp, clear, colorful, a stellar DOF, and dig that picket fence and those terrific shadows in the foreground! Beachzz can sit in the shade on that nearby bench and recharge her batteries while she's gone.
