Another image processed in +Nik Photography CS6 plugin, was considering going BW for this one, however the polarised blue sky and electric grass (don't look too hard at that;) ) got me over the colour line.
One of my favourite seats atop a old rubbish tip – a prime example of how our society/councils can transform wasteland into useable, safe spaces for the community.
Great image +Gerard Blacklock Usually the councils do the opposite, transform the usable area into rubbish. Lucky you 😉
Cool sky there +Gerard Blacklock. Sweet result
Hint of the city balances the shot nicely, good stuff.
+Gerard Blacklock would be good to see a B&W version, but the green contrasts very nicely with the sky
nice capture +Gerard Blacklock
colours are really generating something in this snap
Very great picture, beautiful colors!
+Gerard Blacklock Wonderful photo. Love those clouds and sky 🙂
Gerard Blacklock once again you have put a smile on my face…
Loving the colours all round…
Simple but telling a story…
The bench does it for me lol… Would love to see it in B&W … 😉
Thank you 😉

It's a great shot that speaks volumes to me +Gerard Blacklock. It puts me in a happy place with a smile.
If yo'd have gone B&W, it would still have been a great shot, but it wouldn't project the same way.
Thank you for the experience :))
So happy you didn't go to the B&W side.. We're hungry for green grass up here :-)!
Such a source of good thoughts! I love how you can see a glimpse of the city.. the only thing missing is the yellow brick road! 🙂
Thanks +Vili Gošnak and yes in most cases that is exactly what they do, thankfully South Sydney Council ( +Sydney ) have half a brain between them 😉 and have done some excellent things.
Cheers +Tim Donnelly
+Steven Markham believe it or not i did spend some time just trying to get the right position to get just that hint of the sydney city scape, thanks for noticing 🙂
Thanks for taking the time to look and comment +Hammad Rais , +mariana alexandru and +Kitten KaboodleInc
+Paul Francis i may have revisit the BW version, probably the biggest thing i noted when doing a initial conversion was the lack of depth to the BW.. hence stopped there 🙂
Thanks +Gail Lee , glad I can help out with a smile 🙂 I love the bench too – i will try another go at the BW version.
Thanks +Rose T its funny how shots of simple and empty things can often be the most powerful. Thanks for taking the time to comment and look!
+Florin Munteanu good point, there are some paths there, not yellow bricks but still excellent idea and I'll be sure to try that next time and get one in the right position. Things are pretty dry in NSW at the moment, but some areas are doing ok – I imagine its also pretty darn cold over your way at moment too!
Thanks +BTP Landscape Pro and +Nancy Dempsey , always appreciated.
Your very welcome +Gerard Blacklock :))
