[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
This is one of the bridges over the waterways in St. Stephen's Green. St. Stephen's Green is an inner-city public park in Dublin, Ireland. The park is within the city centre, adjoining the nearby shopping area of Grafton Street. n medieval times, St. Stephen’s Green was a marshy commons on the edge of Dublin, used for grazing. In 1663, Dublin Corporation seeing an opportunity to raise much needed revenue decided to enclose the centre of the common, and to sell land around the perimeter for building. The park was enclosed with a wall in 1664. The houses built around the Green were rapidly replaced by the Georgian style and by the end of the eighteenth century, the Green was a place of resort for the better-off of the city. Much of the present-day landscape of the square comprises modern buildings, some in a replica Georgian style, and relatively little survives from the 18th and 19th centuries. (Wikipedia)

Hello Asa,
This is a beautiful place with excellent POV and composition. I think that it seems a little OE though. I tried a WS and I hope that you'll like it. I enjoyed reading your notes about this nice place. Thanks,
Claudine

Hi Asa,
A lovely idilic spot and looks like a very pleasant place to visit.A nice perspective that has used the trees to frame the bridge.I like how the water leads in.A bit bright and lacking in contrast...claudine has brought out the colours in her WS.Take care and TFS.
Regards, David

Hello Asa,
Tout en douceur cette photo pleine de romantisme. Le cadrage est bon même si j'aurais essayé d'avoir un peu plus du bel arbre de droite.
Amicalement
Jean-Marie

Bonsoir Asa,
Une composition très romantique avec ce vieux pont et cette verdure dans lequel il est noyé.
Les reflets apportent une note supplémentaire de lumière.
Amicalement
Jean-Luc
