Thought provoking, Alex. Could be a metaphor for our times.

Lovely Alex, makes me feel cold just looking at it, also makes you wonder how just one glove got there

Nice find, well spotted. Pretty sure I would have missed it. As Richard has said you can feel the cold.

Thanks, Martin, Richard and Ian. It was a very cold day, but the park was actually full of people taking their exercise. One good outcome of this awful situation is the way people are enjoying the outdoors. Whoever dropped the glove probably caught frostbite!

I really like this Alex.


It's a very simple picture, but says a lot and I love the grain with in it. Smile

Thanks, Terry. I have been over-developing Foma 200 in Microphen to try to create grain and contrast. The results have been quite interesting, and the combination works very well for urban scenes.

An absent-minded fellow-photographer took the glove off to press their own shutter button. Simple, really.


Yet another really good message from you, Alex. Thank you.

Seems simple, but isn't & very effective. Much better image of winter than the usual ones.

An intriguing print well spotted, certainly captured the cold feeling. I wonder if the owner felt as cold as this without his glove?
