Hoboken Sleepers
Trolling through some CDs I burned from last summer, I found this photo which I took in Hoboken early last August. I like the pattern made by the benches and the "reflection" of the foreground snoozer by the one in the background.
The park, uy the way ("Pier A Park",) is built on the ruins of decrepit shipping piers, left to rot for years after Hoboken faded as a center of shipping on the Hudson. It's a wonderful asset for the city - I wish we had it way back in the late 60's when I went to college in Hoboken!
Do you think the photo is too gray and dull overall?

This is a great capture, very humorous :).
I don't think it is too gray. It conveys a feeling of sleepiness :)
Besides, there are not too many true gray scenes out there, and it's interesting to see a well captured rendition.
Thanks for posting, Steve,
HEY, how about everyone else??? Where are you?

P.G. - yes, you DID say "juxtapositioning," and that means you're getting quite advanced in "seeing" photographically ;-)
Thanks for your kind comment.
