Great Swamp Walkway
This was shot in the Great Swamp on the same day as this shot. The Great Swamp is just that, a swamp, so they built walkways that wind their way through the park so that people can explore many varieties of flora and fauna that abound there. It really is a beautiful and peaceful place.Labels: black and white, Fall, Great Swamp, Landscape, Rural

I agree - the Great Swamp is a really great place. I've only been there a few times, but I hope to go more often once it gets to be a bit warmer. :)
& I really like the softfocus effect on this image.
It does look beautiful and peaceful. I especially like the dapples of sunlight coming through the trees.
Nice dashes of sun and shadows. The composition of the walkway draws the eye.
This might be the perfect photo to be B&W. Nice!
lovely shot,the soft focus works really well,
black and white conversion is really nice as usual, you HAVE to teach me that....!!
Definitely similar to Sinems shot but different, this shot has it's own charm and I feel the fact it is a monochrome shot gives it even more character. One wonders what is around the bend.

lovely b/w and framing...a deck chair, my ipod, a computer and some chilled ginger beer and i cud be home at that place...
Great choice to use B&W for this shot and I think the vertical framing works well to emphasize the trees. It's a lovely view.
Beautiful B&W. Great view and contrast. Well seen.
it looks peaceful indeed. great job.
This is a beauty.
This is one of my new favorites. Great job, Laurie!
I love the lighting in this. The soft edges give it a warm feeling, even though it's in b&w. It looks like a nice place to go camping.
PS-thanks for all of your emails over the past few months. They were a big help, especially during the tough times.
This looks like just the place I'd like to explore. Beautiful.
I love this pathway. It has something mysterious...
If I compare this photo with the other one you posted of the Great Swamps it is interesting to see how these photographs can show two different worlds of the same place. Looks like a great place to hike!
a great idea to build a walkway and leave the rest of the place undisturbed. fascinating to contrast and compare the two different photos and their treatment - both excellent in different ways.
Sounds like a great place to come back to again and again. Those are always good to have. I like the sunlight at the end of the walkway, beckoning us on.
Lovely composition. B/w really adds to it.
A so long way on a so small bridge.
A nice B/W, so I like't.
Have a greatweek.

A wonderful shot! Nice composition. The look follows the lighted hand rail...
"I'm on a road to nowhere, come on inside"
That looks just like the walkway through the Congaree Swap in South Carolina. Maybe I need to revisit, now that the mosquitoes are hibernating. Last time I was there I didn't see any animal life.
I love the sun dapples on the railings.
I love the parallel line in this shot.
Lovely shot ... especially the sunlight filtering in ...
