What a lovely place to enjoy a picnic. Like the naturalness of the stone table and benches. Though the bench seats look a little uncomfortable for the bottom. (Wink) Excellent lines used to move the eye through the picture and keep interest. Excellent lighting, focus and details. Gorgeous spot. Thanks for sharing

Good one Fred, love the blue sky, the trees and setting all well framed and focused. Really neat table and chairs, I think I would bring along a cushion. Good work.

Fred,
They look very inviting for a Picnic in the shade of the Umbrella Pines with the sound of the Cicadas buzzing over head & the breeze through the trees. Beautiful composition, framing & lighting with superb camera techniques & sharp focus.
Susan

Comment from Dick Lee Shia
It seems the table is not so safe, or is it?
Nice find. These umbrella pines seem lush enough to give a shade & coolness of the place.
A great initial impact. Nice interesting subject. Excellent POV & DOF...Harmonious colors. Impressive lighting, focusing & framing. Thanks for sharing...
