Dear Aniko:
I felt absolutely no disrespect for your comment. I normally wouldn't explain a photo in the manner in which I did to you but I think that you, of all people, would understand this photo once you knew the "inside" story.
Thank you so much for all the kind words. And believe me, if I would ever get the chance, I'd love to sit you on that bench and take about two gigs of photos. Bring your models, too! LOL
I never did welcome you to UF... so welcome. It's nice to see a talented newcomer to the site.
Best wishes, Dave

Dear Dave: I am sad about the circumstances as to how this image came about and I understand from my heart that the picture and the empty bench means much more to you than just a photo.
I'm a kinda whacky person (as I am sure you know by now,..)And I had no "reason" other than a very strong FEELING that I wanted to be sitting on that bench. I feel that now I have the story behind this capture, I would have liked to "fill an empty space"... perhaps within you? Give a friend some "comfort"... though we did not consciously know of one another at that time?
OK.. it sounds far fetched and forgive me if I have overstepped the mark...
I mean no disresept whatsoever.
Hugs~ Ani

Thank you, Aniko. This is an older shot from 2003 that I came across, having once passed over. This is in a Rocky Mountain gold mining town where my brother lived. When he died suddenly in 2003, I went there to take care of his affairs. It was such a tough time, I had to take some time just to go out and be creative.
In essence, this picture and the empty bench means a lot more to me than just a photo.
Dave

Thanks, Phil! This picture cost me a bunch of bucks. The hard drive it was on crashed and I had it operated on to save all the photos. But I did get them back!

Well, the translator still called the bench a "banco". So I guess in spanish, banco is both a bench and a bank. Yes, long seat is a bench.

Sí, entiendo ahora. El asiento se llama un banco. Estos sitios web de la traducción son realmente terribles. Yo le pensé preguntaba si era un banco.
¡Gracias!! Dave

Hola Dave: Tranquilo... ya sé que no es un banco, el edificio, entendí que es una estación de tren. Banco le digo al asiento...no sé cómo le llaman ustedes. Silla? sillón? asiento???,banqueta?? Digo esto por la cantidad de esperas que habrá soportado, y la gente que espera en estos lugares tiene emociones como expectantes por la llegada y la salida de los trenes. Por eso digo... si hablara y contara estos enriquecedores recuerdos! Me puedes comprender? Saluditos!!!

Hola Alicia dulce. gracias por tu comentario pero, ningún esto no es un banco. Esto es una estación del ferrocarril (tren). Abrazo a ti, Dave
