Day 133 - Benched

These benches are supposed to allow people out enjoying the riverfront trail to sit and watch the water flow gently by.

I think things have gotten a little too interactive, however, for most people. With the St. John River at flood levels, I wanted to find a way to capture the impact of the rising water on the city. We haven't had too much flood damage but it certainly makes for some interesting sights.

I played with aperture and depth of focus on my bench pictures and spent some time trying to figure out what the most effective composition for the shot would be. I quite like this one, perhaps because it's quiet but effective. The benches are just there in the water.
