Description
As a photographer, I try to find scenes that tell more than just showing an object. When I saw this bench, I was taken aback. The paint was used so felt like it had been sat on many times in the past, but now needed refreshing, which had not been done. The leaves lay on the seat where once lovers hugged and perhaps kissed. The composition is set very much in a way to turn away from the world (which is the opposite of what you would expect) to bring forth the feeling of loss and sadness. This is further pushed by adding a bluish hue to the black and white image. The negative space is nicely filled with falling leaves and drooping branches which reinforce the theme.
This is a limited edition print. Once 30 prints have been sold, I will pull it. Next print to be sold will be 2/3. #01302. This does not pertain to images sold on products or as greeting cards. Image must be 16" or more on the longest side (before framing). If you purchase an image from me and would like a signed certificate of authenticity as long as the above conditions are followed, simply contact me through the site, or the contact form on maggieterlecki.com and I will be happy to mail you one!

VIVA, thank you so much. I've always loved this photo but have always felt many people did not get what I was trying to portray and how I was trying to portray it. Thank you so much for your kind comment :-) Maggie
