Evelyne Dubos from Le Mans, France
Amusante composition que forment ces 3 balançoires désertées, on imagine les scènes de joie qu'elles doivent provoquer quand les enfants (et les parents....) grimpent dessus.

@Evelyne Dubos: Oui j'ai trouve ca assez brilliant lol merci beaucoup Evelyne :)
@Saeed: Thanks a lot Saed :)

Scotfot from Kabul, Afghanistan
Interesting arrangement! I take it from the title you had a go - I wonder which one :-)
19 Jun 2008 9:39am
@Scotfot: I didn't do it, it was the wind..I swear LOL actually not my backyard and I may be sneaky but I respect people's private space, especially when there are children around ;) Thanks a lot Bob
@Betty: Thanks a lot Betty lol i thought it was cute ;)
MaryB from Staffordshire, United Kingdom
It definatly looks like fun Lorraine, did you have a go?
I'd have been tempted :)
19 Jun 2008 11:11am
@MaryB: Not so my dear, not my backyard LOL...
Judy from Brooksville-Florida,, United States
All you needed was your tripod and your timer set and YOU could have had a ride in this playful scene! ;D
19 Jun 2008 11:13am
@Judy: Well Judy, it would have been wrong seeing as how it was not my backyard, got to respect people's privacy and boundaries...but I do have tripod given to me by neighbours 'cause they weren't able to sell it at a garage sale, how sweet is that? I've been offered to give them a few bucks but they said it wasnt necessary, i tell you I'm so lucky with the neighbours I have lol
Observing from Chester, United Kingdom
I bet you spend many hours here on the swing... yes? go on admit it :0
Good photo Lorraine, a playgarden scene.
19 Jun 2008 11:17am
@Observing: Oh Mike I guarantee I've yet to resist a swing, but this was on private property, that I pay heed to, but thank you so much!
@MJ: Did not play lol not my backyard, but it was fun shooting ;) Thanks MJ!

@JoeB: Absolutely Joe, and if it hadn't been on private property, I would have been right on it lol thanks a lot!
Michael Rawluk from Prince George, Canada
Very strong composition. I could use a little time on the swing.
19 Jun 2008 3:26pm
@Michael Rawluk: It's a good way to bring up the spirit, thanks a lot Michael, try to find one this weekend and have fun ;)
Daroru from Amagasaki, Japan
You must enjoy your time in your garden very much Lorraine!
19 Jun 2008 3:30pm
@Daroru: lol Thanks Daroru but it's not my backyard, I'm really more of an inside person :)
Richard_Irwin from Belper, United Kingdom
I would just have to try all 3 to see which age I best fit into.
Nice shot, super crisp image.
19 Jun 2008 3:34pm
@Richard_Irwin: lol Oh gosh you ever try that, i want to be there with my camera LOL that would be lovely, thanks for the chuckle Richard ;)
vu@granby - Wolfgang from Granby, Québec, Canada
Qui va jouer le rôle de Tarzan? :-)
19 Jun 2008 3:35pm
@vu@granby - Wolfgang: A qui le veut bien? lol merci beaucoup Gilles :)
@Craig: Thanks a lot Craig :)
Marion from Nanaimo, BC, Canada
Maybe we could sneak in there together when your neighbours aren't looking. You take the red tire and I'll just settle back on the black one. What do you think? Another great interest shot Lorraine that is as crisp as a new dollar bill.
19 Jun 2008 4:26pm
@Marion: You are brilliant Marion! How did you know I wanted the red? well get rid of that cold of yours, rest a lot then let's jump in lol and thanks so much :)
Janice Thomson from Canada
It does look like fun - I often sit on swings etc in a playground - a little bit of the kid in all of us I guess :)
Very crisp and clear composition mon amie - love that little red seat.
19 Jun 2008 4:29pm
@Janice Thomson: Me too lol thanks so much ...isn't it adorable ;)
@Death: Makes you fill like swinging Edris lol thanks a lot :)
Viewfinder from Bradenton, United States
This is a very neat composition; I like the reds of the tire and small swing.
19 Jun 2008 6:20pm
@Viewfinder: Thanks a lot Vf :)
@laughingwolf: :)
Cheryl from Texas, United States

19 Jun 2008 9:03pm
@Cheryl: Thanks a lot Cheryl...next time you see a swing you know what to do:)
standley from brou-sur-chantereine, France
Les couleurs et la clarté sont superbes Lorraine. J'y ferais bien un petit tour!
19 Jun 2008 9:17pm
@standley: Choisis ton siège Richard lol merci beaucoup :)
Barbara from Florida, United States
I'll take the red tire! It does look like fun. Nice capture Lorraine, bringing out the child in us.
