Ponds just make for the most beautiful captures and this one is no exception. Love the weed floating on the top and the lush greenery surrounding the pond. #1207990

Marty Straub November 23, 2009

That's why many hospitals walls are painted green. A very inviting scene, Christine. The bench becomes the goal, the water the obstacle, and the light brings us hope. #8156580

Christine Lobsinger level-classic November 23, 2009

WOW Marty!!! I like what you wrote, and how you think! So, so true!
Thanks for pointing out your thoughts!

Have a great evening Marty.

PS now I just wished I remember where my 'hospital negs. are from the 80's.. I had great 'HOPE' pic's..

PICTURE THIS.. children in their hosp. beds and SPCA dogs/cats brought in to visit the sick kids - to cheer them up!!
I needed to stand in the hallway, because some of the children had Cancer-and I couldn't help but have tears in my eyes, although 'pet therapy' does bring a smile to them. #8159925
